Steroid cell tumors, not otherwise specified, are infrequently encountered ovarian neoplasms, which constitute <0.1% of all ovarian tumors. Most of these tumors are unilateral, and almost one-third of all cases are reportedly malignant. However, because most of these tumors are diagnosed in the early stage, and do not recur or metastasize, little is known about their response to therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation. Here, we present a rare case of recurrent steroid cell tumor, not otherwise specified that showed a complete response after debulking surgery, radiofrequency ablation, and adjuvant chemotherapy.
未另行指定的类固醇细胞瘤是罕见的卵巢肿瘤，占所有卵巢肿瘤的比例不到0.1%。这些肿瘤大多为单侧性，据报道，所有病例中近三分之一为恶性。然而，由于这些肿瘤大多在早期被诊断出来，且不复发或转移，因此对其对化疗或放疗等治疗的反应了解甚少。在此，我们报告一例罕见的复发性未另行指定的类固醇细胞瘤病例，该病例在肿瘤减灭术、射频消融和辅助化疗后显示出完全缓解。
