Primary carcinoid tumors of the ovary account for 5% of ovarian teratomas. They are frequently components of mature cystic teratomas or, less commonly, mucinous cystadenomas. Most tumors are seen in peri- or postmenopausal women with symptoms of enlarging mass, or are incidental findings. Microscopically, there are four major variants of ovarian teratomas of carcinoid type: insular, trabecular, strumal and mucinous. One-third of patients with the insular type of carcinoids have symptoms of the carcinoid syndrome. Strumal carcinoid is an unusual form of ovarian teratoma composed of an intimate admixture of thyroid and carcinoid tissues that vary in their relative proportions. Two patients with ovarian tumors showing typical morphology of primary ovarian strumal carcinoid are described.
卵巢原发性类癌肿瘤占卵巢畸胎瘤的5%。它们常为成熟性囊性畸胎瘤的组成部分，较少情况下为黏液性囊腺瘤的组成部分。大多数肿瘤见于围绝经期或绝经后女性，表现为肿块增大的症状，或为偶然发现。显微镜下，卵巢类癌型畸胎瘤有四种主要变型：岛状、小梁状、甲状腺肿样和黏液性。三分之一的岛状类癌患者有类癌综合征的症状。甲状腺肿样类癌是一种不常见的卵巢畸胎瘤形式，由甲状腺组织和类癌组织紧密混合而成，其相对比例各不相同。本文描述了两名卵巢肿瘤表现为原发性卵巢甲状腺肿样类癌典型形态的患者。
