Herein, we are presenting a case of a 33-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department complaining of persistent lower abdominal pain of one-day duration. Physical examination revealed abdominal tenderness with right lower quadrant rebound tenderness. Computed tomography abdomen/pelvis showed a 6 cm possible necrotic mass of the left ovary with moderate amount of complex ascites. A laparoscopic left oophorectomy with bilateral salpingectomy, right ovarian biopsy, and appendectomy were performed without complications. The cut surface of the left ovary showed a 9.7 cm × 8 cm × 4 cm ovarian mass, and the cut surface revealed multiple gray-tan friable papillary excrescence. Microscopic evaluation showed findings consistent with left and right ovarian serous borderline tumor (SBT). Subsequently, a tumor staging was conducted with total laparoscopic hysterectomy, pelvic and periaortic lymph node dissection, and omentectomy. The endometrium sections showed several small foci of SBT within the endometrial stroma, consistent with non-invasive implants of the endometrium. The omentum and lymph nodes were all negative for malignancy. SBTs associated with endometrial implants are very rare with only one case reported in the literature. Their existence can cause diagnostic challenges, and they should be acknowledged for early diagnosis and to plan for patient's treatment and outcome.
在此,我们报告一例33岁女性病例,该患者因持续一天的下腹部疼痛前往急诊科就诊。体格检查发现腹部压痛,右下腹有反跳痛。腹部/盆腔计算机断层扫描显示左侧卵巢有一个6厘米可能坏死的肿块,伴有中等量的复杂性腹水。行腹腔镜下左侧卵巢切除术、双侧输卵管切除术、右侧卵巢活检及阑尾切除术,无并发症发生。左侧卵巢切面显示一个9.7厘米×8厘米×4厘米的卵巢肿块,切面可见多个灰棕色易碎的乳头状赘生物。显微镜检查结果符合左右卵巢浆液性交界性肿瘤(SBT)。随后,进行了肿瘤分期手术,包括全腹腔镜子宫切除术、盆腔和腹主动脉旁淋巴结清扫术以及大网膜切除术。子宫内膜切片显示子宫内膜基质内有几个小的SBT病灶,符合子宫内膜的非侵袭性种植。大网膜和淋巴结均未发现恶性病变。与子宫内膜种植相关的SBT非常罕见,文献中仅报道过一例。它们的存在可能会带来诊断挑战,应予以重视以便早期诊断并为患者的治疗和预后制定计划。
