“…Also, increased tumor markers are another indicator of ovarian malignancy. However, SST of the ovary may show a mixed pattern with cystic and solid components on US [1]. An echogenic ovarian mass with acoustic shadowing has been reported as a US imaging finding in SST, but US in our patient showed neither echogenicity nor acoustic shadowing (Fig.…”

“…An echogenic ovarian mass with acoustic shadowing has been reported as a US imaging finding in SST, but US in our patient showed neither echogenicity nor acoustic shadowing (Fig. 1a) [1]. This indicates that the US features of SST of the ovary may be variable, and that additional imaging with another modality such as CT or MRI may be needed.…”

“…Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is a benign stromal tumor of the ovary. Imaging findings and histopathological results in SST are well described in the literature [1][2][3][4]. However, there are no reports regarding elastography findings in SST.…”

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary: ultrasound elastography and MRI findings on preoperative diagnosis

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is a benign stromal tumor of the ovary. Preoperative diagnosis of this benign tumor mainly depends on imaging findings. Dynamic computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) show typical contrast enhancement of SST with peripheral enhancement in the early phase and centripetal progression in the delayed phases. We present the imaging findings of ultrasonography, ultrasound elastography, and dynamic MRI in the diagnosis of SST. Abdominal ultrasound elastography is a novel technique that depicts the stromal structure of SSTs by comparing the elasticity of the tumor and the myometrium using quantitative strain values.

“…Color Doppler ultrasonography of SSTs revealed prominent vascularity in the peripheral portion and central intercystic spaces. 16 Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings include a large mass with hyperintense cystic components or a heterogeneous solid mass of intermediate to high signal intensity on T2-weighted MRI. The thick peripheral hypointense rim on T2-weighted imaging is a compressed ovarian cortex due to a slow growing tumor.…”

A case of huge sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary weighing 10 kg in a 71-year-old postmenopausal woman

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is a rare benign neoplasm of ovarian stromal origin and predominantly affects young women in the second and third decades. This tumor characteristically differentiates itself histologically and clinically from both thecomas and fibromas. We present a case of huge SST of the ovary weighing 10 kg in a 71-year-old postmenopausal woman with a brief review of the literature.

“…Cette lésion est oblongue avec des angles de raccordement obtus avec la vessie. Deux éléments suggèrent très fortement le diagnostic ; cette masse est soulignée en regard de la paroi vésicale par une ligne très écho-gène jamais visualisée dans les cancers de vessie [54]. La lésion endométriosique contient de petites lacunes anécho-gènes typiques ou de multiples spots hyperintenses en IRM pondérés T2, ces anomalies étant similaires à celles observées dans l'adénomyose utérine d'ailleurs souvent associée dans le myomètre antérieur en regard de la lésion endomé-triosique vésicale [55].…”
