“…Of these, >80% of SSTs have been observed in young adults, in the second and third decades of life (2,3). The most common clinical symptoms of patients with SST of the ovary are menstrual irregularities, pelvic pain and non-specific symptoms associated with the existence of a mass in the pelvic area (2,4). Due to the rarity of this neoplasm, it is not always possible to predict the presence of this tumor preoperatively based solely on clinical and radiological findings (5).…”

Abstract. Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) of the ovary, which was first described by Chalvardjian and Scully in 1973, is a rare ovarian neoplasm, occurring predominantly in young women. The most common clinical symptom in patients with SST is menstrual irregularities. Microscopically, the tumor is characterized by the presence of pseudo-lobulated cellular areas, with a prominent tendency to sclerosis, marked vascularity and pronounced variation in cellular size and shape. In the current study, 2 cases of SST of the ovary are presented. These cases were confirmed by imaging, surgical and histological examination. No adjuvant therapy was administered to the patients and the two patients were disease-free with no imaging findings of recurrence or metastasis 24 months following surgery.

“…Unlike the thecoma-fibroma group of ovarian stromal tumors, which tend to occur in the fifth and sixth decades, the SST predominantly affects young women with a mean age of 28 years [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. Following the original description of the tumor in 1973 by Chalvardjian and Scully, in their series of 10 patients [1], there have been several additional small series reported [2,5] and multiple isolated case reports focusing on the pathologic aspects of this unusual entity [3].…”

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is a rare benign ovarian neoplasm of stromal origin with less than 100 cases reported in the literature. Unlike the other stromal tumors, thecomas and fibromas, which tend to occur in the fifth and sixth decades, sclerosing stromal tumors predominantly affect females in the second and third decades. Computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound findings have been described, but have not been reported previously in the pediatric literature. We present a case of SST of the ovary in a 10-year-old premenarchal female, the youngest patient to our knowledge reported in the literature, and describe the ultrasound and CT findings with pathologic correlation.

“…SST occurs most frequently in young females (average age at diagnosis 27, to 28 years) [6] and the most common signs and symptoms are a palpable pelvic mass, metrorrhagia, menstural irregularity, and pelvic pain.…”

A sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is an extremely rare benign tumor in pregnant women. Only 9 reports of sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary during pregnancy have been presented. A 26-year-old woman at the 10th week of gestation was explored via laparoscopic surgery. She had non-specifi c symptoms but high levels of the tumor marker. The pathological diagnosis was sclerosing stromal tumor of the right ovary. We report a case of sclerosing stromal tumor in a 26-year-old woman who was admitted to confi rm pregnancy with a review of the literature.
