Sertoliform Endometrioid Tumor of Ovary Presenting as Torsion

Abstract: Sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary (SEC) is an uncommon variant that bears histologic similarity to sertoli and sertoli-leydig cell tumors. We report an interesting case of SEC in a 55-year-old female with a left ovarian mass with torsion. Histology revealed an SEC, featuring foci of typical endometrioid carcinoma, and areas composed of uniform, small, hollow tubules lined by columnar cells with apical cytoplasm. Tumor cells were strongly immunoreactive for EMA and cytokeratin but negative for inh… Show more

“…Bilateral ovarian metastasis of sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma with omental metastasis showed small hollow or solid tubules surrounded by cellular and fibrous stroma. [23][24][25] Immunohistochemistry (Inhibin negative, Estrogen receptor positive and WT1 negative) confirmed the endometrial origin of the tumor and ruled out the sertoli cell tumor in these two cases.Figure 5 6…”

“…Two recent studies have explored similar cases. One study by Lauren Roth et al discusses an ovarian leydig cell tumor associated with recurrent torsion and virilization in an adolescent patient [ 4 ], while another by P.Pai et al describes a case of sertoliform endometrioid tumor of the ovary presenting as torsion in a 55-year-old premenopausal woman [ 7 ].…”

“…[2] SEC is usually a well-differentiated, low-grade tumor and has a good prognosis when confined to the ovary. [3] We are report a case of SEC of the ovary in a postmenopausal female who presented with abdominal wall abscess in the epigastric region. This was a very unusual presentation of this rare condition.…”
