Ovarian leiomyoma is one of the rare solid tumours of ovary, accounting for 0.5-1% of the benign tumours of the ovary. We report one such case which presented in a postmenopausal woman. The differential diagnosis includes ovarian fibroma, thecoma, cellular fibroma and sclerosing stromal tumour. Masson's trichrome staining helps to distinguish fibrous and smooth muscle components of the lesion and confirms the diagnosis of ovarian leiomyoma. Hence, ovarian leiomyoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ovarian spindle cell tumours.
卵巢平滑肌瘤是卵巢罕见的实性肿瘤之一,占卵巢良性肿瘤的0.5 - 1%。我们报告一例发生在绝经后女性的此类病例。鉴别诊断包括卵巢纤维瘤、卵泡膜细胞瘤、细胞性纤维瘤和硬化性间质瘤。Masson三色染色有助于区分病变的纤维和平滑肌成分,并确诊卵巢平滑肌瘤。因此,在卵巢梭形细胞瘤的鉴别诊断中应考虑卵巢平滑肌瘤。
