“…Although SO can be detected at any age even in childhood, it is mostly observed in the reproductive age (16). In the recent report, the patient was in a reproductive age, which is similar to other previous evaluations (8,9,(13)(14)(15). However, some reports of the ovarian stroma are available in the 5th and 6th years of life or under 20 years (8,9,15).…”

“…In half of the patients, ovarian tumors may be detected accidentally on ultrasound. Although the diagnostic criteria for SO is based on the histologic appearance of the ovarian sample, it is sometimes necessary to determine the origin of the cell by immunohistochemistry staining for thyroglobulin (13). In the recent report which was similar to previous investigations (8,9,(13)(14)(15), the probability of a dermoid cyst was noted in the sonographic report, which was finally diagnosed as SO.…”

Struma Ovarii With the Coexistence of Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis: A Case Report

et al. 2019

Background: Struma ovarii (SO) is a rare phenomenon. In addition, it can be identified from the histological assessment and may show the characteristics of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis in rare cases. In several cases, malignant stroma ovarii is found to produce hyperthyroidism while very few cases are reported with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. The present study reported SO co-incident with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. It should be mentioned that accurate monitoring of any signs of hypothyroidism is highly important after the surgery. Case Report: A 21-year-old patient with oligomenorrhea, hypogastric pain for the last year, dyspareunia and dysmenorrhea with a right adnexal cystic focus, and a bright echogenic focus referred to Al-Zahra hospital, Rasht. Histopathologic examination was compatible with the diagnosis of mature cystic teratoma containing SO co-incident with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis while the patient was in a good general appearance 2 days after the surgery. Regarding the subclinical hypothyroidism and due to her willingness to conceive, the clinician administered levothyroxine and thus the patient was in a stable state within 6 months. Conclusion: In general, it is recommended to consider SO in women with ovarian mass and impaired thyroid function.

“…Although many diseases of thyroid tissue can be seen in ovarian teratomas, Hashimoto's thyroiditis is very rare and a few cases have been reported in the literature. [12345] Hashimoto's thyroiditis in an ovarian mature cystic teratoma and thyroid papillary carcinoma derived on this ground have previously been reported in literature with only one case, and our case is presented as the second case.…”

“…None of these cases have been mentioned about Hashimoto's disease. In a study of 315 ovarian teratomas, Watson[4] reported 17 cases of thyroid tissue and only 1 case of Hashimoto's disease, in which antithyroid antibodies were found to be negative. Thyroid papillary carcinoma arising in ovarian teratoma which has Hashimoto's thyroiditis has been reported in literature only in one case.…”

A wide variety of tissues derived from the three germ layers are seen in ovarian teratomas. Microscopically, the most commonly seen tissues are epidermis, skin adnexa, and neural tissues. Thyroid tissue is present in 10% of ovarian mature cystic teratomas. In this case, report, we present a rare case of papillary microcarcinoma derived in the ovarian teratoma and Hashimoto's thyroiditis with the normal level of serum thyroid hormones, which is normal but positive serum antithyroid peroxidase antibodies.

“…The finding of Hashimoto's disease in a bilateral mature cystic teratoma is a very rare phenomenon, with few cases reported in literature till date (2,3). We report this case for its rarity.…”

A wide array of tissues derived from all the three germinal layers is seen in ovarian teratomas. Among these, thyroid tissue is present in 10% cases of all mature cystic teratomas.We report this case of Hashimoto's thyroiditis in a clinically euthyroid patient who tested positive for antithyroid peroxidase antibodies in spite of normal thyroid hormone profile.While the histological features of several disorders of thyroid tissue may be discovered, Hashimoto's thyroiditis is extremely rare finding in ovarian teratomas.

Histological Hashimoto's disease in a benign cystic ovarian teratoma

Abstract: A case of Hashimoto's disease of the thyroid component of a benign cystic ovarian teratoma is reported, unassociated with previous neck surgery. Three hundred and fifteen cases of ovarian teratomata were reviewed to determine the incidence of this complication.
