Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) primarily arise in the pancreas and are uncommon in the ovaries. Here, we present a case of ovarian-origin SPN. Alongside the typical solid and pseudopapillary structures, "cholesteroma-like" denaturation areas and tissue degeneration regions are also observed. Immunohistochemistry analysis demonstrates positive results for β-catenin (nucleus), CD99 (dot-like), CD56, and vimentin. Imaging studies rule out pancreatic or other origins. This study aims to enhance comprehension, diagnosis, and differential diagnosis of primary ovarian SPN among pathologists and clinicians, as well as to investigate the origin and management of primary solid pseudopapillary tumors in the ovary.
实性假乳头状肿瘤(SPN)主要起源于胰腺,在卵巢中较为罕见。在此,我们报告一例卵巢起源的SPN。除了典型的实性和假乳头状结构外,还观察到“胆脂瘤样”变性区域和组织退变区域。免疫组织化学分析显示β-连环蛋白(细胞核)、CD99(点状)、CD56和波形蛋白呈阳性结果。影像学检查排除了胰腺或其他起源。本研究旨在提高病理学家和临床医生对原发性卵巢SPN的理解、诊断和鉴别诊断能力,并探讨卵巢原发性实性假乳头状肿瘤的起源和处理方法。
