Myxoid Degeneration of Ovarian Tumor in Young Patient, Laparoscopic Approach

Abstract

Myxoid degeneration of ovarian tumors represents a rare distinctive benign ovarian stromal neoplasm that occurs predominantly in young women and is hormonally inactive. According to recent bibliography, pathogenesis remains controversial. Many conducted studies express the strong belief adjusting myxoid ovarian tumors with genetic abnormalities. Therapeutic mapping is associated with histologic confirmation of the lesion. In cases of premenopausal patients, fertility preservation consists of ultimate scope. Abdominal MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) along with transvaginal ultrasound can differentiate and depict all preoperative imaging findings. Myxoid degenerated ovarian tumors can be malignant transformed into myxoid leiomyosarcomas with extremely metastatic possibilities. Meticulous atomic history, proper laboratory and imaging findings reflect successful key concerning ultimate diagnosis and treatment.
