Malignant transformation of ovarian teratomas is rare, provoking peritonitis and death are exceedingly rare.
We present the case of a 75-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department for severe abdominal pain with septic shock due to acute peritonitis caused by perforation of the ovarian mass.
Teratomas are germ cell tumors usually composed of multiple cell types derived from one or more of the three germ layers. Pathologically, malignant transformation of ovarian dermoid cysts is rare due to the thickness of the capsule, spontaneous rupture is a very rare complication, acute peritonitis presents with features of acute abdomen or shock, treatment is essentially surgical and includes at least unilateral adnexectomy, complete exploration of the pelvis and abdominal cavity, peritoneal washing and/or sampling of any ascites.
In conclusion, although ovarian teratoma with granulomatous peritonitis is rare, rupture leading to generalised acute peritonitis further worsens the prognosis. Which will ensure correct management that will provide a good outcome with less complications.
卵巢畸胎瘤恶变罕见,引发腹膜炎及导致死亡极为罕见。
我们报告一例75岁女性病例,因卵巢肿物穿孔导致急性腹膜炎并发感染性休克,因严重腹痛入住急诊科。
畸胎瘤是生殖细胞肿瘤,通常由源自三个胚层中一个或多个的多种细胞类型组成。病理上,卵巢皮样囊肿恶变罕见,因其囊壁较厚,自发破裂是非常罕见的并发症,急性腹膜炎表现为急腹症或休克特征,治疗主要为手术治疗,至少包括单侧附件切除术、对盆腔和腹腔进行全面探查、腹腔冲洗和/或抽取腹水样本。
总之,尽管伴有肉芽肿性腹膜炎的卵巢畸胎瘤罕见,但破裂导致弥漫性急性腹膜炎会进一步恶化预后。这将确保正确的管理,从而获得良好的结果并减少并发症。
