RESUMEN
Los tumores de ovario en la edad pediátrica son raros, representan 1-5 % de los tumores infantiles, con una incidencia anual de 2,6 casos por cada 100.000 pacientes. La mayoría son benignos y se tratan de quistes funcionales, sin embargo, entre 10-20 % son malignos y generalmente se presentan en adolescentes; estos últimos, se dividen en 3 grupos: tumores epiteliales, germinales, y estromales o de células sexuales. Método: Estudio retrospectivo de tipo transversal, observacional, no experimental. Se analizaron los pacientes con diagnóstico de tumor de ovario, ingresados en el Servicio de Cirugía Pediátrica del Hospital de Niños "Dr. José Manuel de los Ríos", entre el 1 de enero de 2017 y 01 de julio de 2022. Resultados: 18 pacientes incluidos en el estudio, con edad media de 8,23 años (DE 4,77); los síntomas más frecuentes presentados al momento del ingreso fueron: aumento de volumen abdominal (52,94 %, 9 pacientes), y dolor abdominal (35,29 %, 6 pacientes), entre otros. Reporte patológico: 2 pacientes con quistes de ovario funcional (11,76 %) y 16 pacientes con tumor neoplásico (88,23 %), de los cuales 8 fueron germinales (53,33 %), 5 tumores epiteliales (33,33 %) y 2 pacientes con linfoma (13,33 %). Conclusión: Los tumores de ovario en general tienen una edad promedio de presentación de 8 años y los tumores neoplásicos se presentaron principalmente en adolescentes, siendo el tipo histológico más frecuente el tumor germinal y dentro de este grupo el teratoma quístico maduro.

Ovarian tumors in pediatric age are rare, representing 1-5 % of childhood tumors, with an annual incidence of 2.6 cases per 100,000 patients. Most of them are benign and functional cysts; however, between 10-20 % are malignant and generally occur in teenagers; the latter are divided into 3 groups: epithelial, germinal, and stromal or sex cell tumors. Methods: Retrospective, cross-sectional, observational, non-experimental study. Patients with a diagnosis of ovarian tumor, admitted to the Pediatric Surgery Service of the Children's Hospital "Dr. José Manuel de los Ríos", between January 01, 2017 and July 01, 2022, were analyzed. Results: 18 patients included in the study, with mean age 8.23 years (SD 4.77); the most frequent symptoms presented at admission were: increased abdominal volume (52.94 %, 9 patients), and abdominal pain (35.29 %, 6 patients), among others. Pathological report: 2 patients with functional ovarian cysts (11.76 %) and 16 patients with neoplastic tumor (88.23 %), of which 8 were germinal (53.33 %), 5 epithelial tumors (33.33 %) and 2 patients with lymphoma (13.33 %). Conclusion: Ovarian tumors in general have an average age of presentation of 8 years and neoplastic tumors occurred mainly in teenagers, the most common histological type being the germ cell tumor and within this group the mature cystic teratoma.

Los fibromas ováricos son tumores benignos poco frecuentes, generalmente unilaterales, que se presentan principalmente en mujeres perimenopáusicas y posmenopáusicas. Los síntomas pueden variar y en algunos casos están asociados a ascitis y derrame pleural, conocido como síndrome de Meigs. Se presenta un caso de una paciente de 55 años de edad con antecedentes de hipertensión arterial y asma bronquial, quién acude a ginecólogo por dolor en fosa ilíaca derecha de tres meses de evolución. Se realizan diferentes estudios incluyendo ecografía y tomografía abdomino-pélvica, los cuales revelan una tumoración sólida bilateral de ovarios. Se realiza histerectomía abdominal total más salpingo-oforectomía bilateral y a pesar de sus características, el estudio histopatológico hace el diagnóstico de fibroma bilateral. La presentación clínica de los fibromas de ovario es inespecífica, por lo que suelen confundirse con patología maligna del ovario u otras patologías benignas de útero u ovario, constituyendo un reto para el diagnóstico preoperatorio(AU)
Ovarian fibromas are rare tumors that mainly occur in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. Symptoms can vary, and in some cases, they may be associated with ascites and pleural effusion, known as Meigs Syndrome. The article presents the case of a 55-year-old patient with a history of hypertension and bronchial asthma, who visit a gynecologist due to pain in the right iliac fossa of three months duration. Various studies were performed, including ultrasound and abdominal and pelvic CT, which reveal the presence of solid bilateral ovarian tumors. The patient undergoes a total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and despite it's characteristics, the histopathological study makes the diagnosis of bilateral ovarian fibroma with no signs of malignancy. The clinical presentation of ovarian fibromas is nonspecific, often leading to confusion with malignant ovarian pathology or other benign uterine or ovarian conditions, representing a challenge for preoperative diagnosis(AU)

El tumor de los cordones sexuales con estructuras túbulo anulares (TCSTA) es un tumor ovárico extremadamente infrecuente representando el 1%-2% de los tumores de los cordones sexuales. Cuando existe asociación con síndrome de Peutz-Jeghers (SPJ) el tumor generalmente tiene un comportamiento benigno, no así en la ausencia de esta asociación. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 18 años con sus características clínicas e histopatológicas.
Sex cord tumor with tubule-annular structures (TCSTA) is a rare ovarian tumor, representing 1%-2% of sex-cord stromal tumors. When there is an association with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (SPJ), the tumor generally behaves benignly, but not without this association. The case of an 18-year-old patient with its clinical and histopathological characteristics is presented.
RESUMEN
Fundamento: Los linfomas primarios de ovario son poco frecuentes; el 1 % de estos se presenta en ovario y el 1.5 % de los tumores malignos de ovario son linfomas. Los tipos histológicos más frecuentes es el linfoma no Hodgkin difuso de células B grande y el BurKitt; el tratamiento consiste en cirugía combinada con quimioterapia. Objetivo: Reportar un caso de un linfoma no Hodgkin difuso de células B grande primario de ovario. Presentación de caso: Se presentó el caso de una paciente de 39 años de edad, con antecedentes patológicos personales de salud; la cual fue al cuerpo de guardia de ginecología por presentar dolor abdominal difuso que no se aliviaba con analgésicos. En la exploración física presentaba dolor a la palpación superficial y profunda en hipocondrio y fosa ilíaca derecha con masa tumoral palpable. Ecografía hacia proyección anexial derecha se observó una imagen de baja ecogenicidad y en la laparoscopia de urgencia se concluyó como una formación de aspecto tumoral que parecía corresponderse con ovario derecho. Se le realizó una histerectomía con doble anexectomía. El diagnóstico anatomopatológico fue un linfoma no Hodgkin primario de ovario. Conclusiones: La paciente del caso presentado tuvo una clínica oligosintomática y la confirmación de la enfermedad fue a partir de una muestra quirúrgica, lo que expresa que el diagnóstico del linfoma no Hodgkin de células B es difícil y aunque es poco frecuente siempre se debe tener en cuenta en el diagnóstico diferencial de las tumoraciones unilaterales de ovario.
Background: Primary ovarian lymphomas are uncommon, 1% of these malignancies occur in the ovary, and 1.5% of all ovarian malignancies are lymphomas. The most common histologic types are diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and BurKitt's lymphoma; treatment consists of surgery combined with chemotherapy. Objective: To report a case of primary ovarian diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Case presentation: A 39-year-old female case is presented, with a personal pathological history; she went to the gynecology emergency service because she presented diffuse abdominal pain that was not relieved by analgesics. Physical examination revealed superficial and deep pain on palpation in the hypochondrium and right illiac fossa with a palpable tumor mass. Right adnexal ultrasound showed an image of low echogenicity and at the emergency laparoscopy, it was diagnosed as a tumor-like formation that appeared to correspond to the right ovary. She underwent a hysterectomy with double adnexectomy. The anatomopathologic diagnosis was primary ovarian non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Conclusions: The patient in the presented case had an oligosymptomatic clinical presentation. Confirmation of the disease was obtained from a surgical sample, which means that B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is difficult to diagnose and although it is uncommon, it should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of unilateral ovarian tumors.

O objetivo deste estudo é descrever o caso de mulher com síndrome de Meigs e apresentar a revisão narrativa sobre o tema. Paciente do sexo feminino, 30 anos, nulípara, encaminhada ao hospital por massa anexial e história prévia de drenagem de derrame pleural. Evoluiu com instabilidade hemodinâmica por derrame pleural hipertensivo à direita, sendo submetida a drenagem torácica, com citologia do líquido negativa. Após, foi submetida a laparotomia: realizada salpingo-ooforectomia esquerda. A congelação e a análise histopatológica diagnosticaram fibroma ovariano. A citologia ascítica foi negativa. CA-125 elevado, presença de derrames cavitários e exame de imagem suspeito podem mimetizar um cenário de neoplasia maligna de ovário em estágio avançado. Entretanto, na síndrome de Meigs clássica, o tratamento é cirúrgico, sendo o diagnóstico obtido por meio da análise histopatológica do tumor ovariano. O manejo da síndrome de Meigs clássica é cirúrgico e, após a remoção do tumor, o derrame pleural e a ascite desaparecem.
To describe a case of Meigs syndrome and present a narrative review of the condition. Female patient, 30 years old, nulliparous, referred to the hospital due to an adnexal mass and a previous drainage of pleural effusion. She developed hemodynamic instability due to a hypertensive right pleural effusion being submitted to chest drainage, with negative cytology of the fluid. She underwent laparotomy: Left salpingo-oophorectomy was performed and frozen section and histopathological analysis diagnosed an ovarian fibroma. Ascites cytology was negative. Elevated CA-125, presence of cavitary effusions, suspicious imaging exam can mimic a scenario of ovarian cancer at an advanced stage. However, in classical Meigs syndrome, treatment is surgical, and the diagnosis is obtained through histopathological analysis of the ovarian tumor. Classical Meigs syndrome' management is surgical. After tumor removal, pleural effusion and ascites resolve.

ANTECEDENTES: El cistoadenofibroma seroso de ovario es una neoplasia epitelial benigna, relativamente infrecuente, de crecimiento lento y de causa desconocida. El diagnóstico preoperatorio es complejo debido a la ausencia de síntomas y signos específicos que permitan descartar la malignidad. OBJETIVO: Analizar retrospectivamente las características clínicas, radiológicas, histopatológicas, y la atención médica de las pacientes. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Análisis retrospectivo y descriptivo de pacientes con diagnóstico histopatológico de cistoadenofibroma seroso de ovario atendidas en el Hospital General de Albacete entre los años 2010 a 2022. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 635 piezas quirúrgicas, de las que el 57.74% correspondieron a neoplasias serosas benignas, el 17.41% a neoplasias serosas fronterizas y un 24.85% a neoplasias serosas malignas. Se identificaron 20 casos de pacientes con diagnóstico de cistoadenofibroma seroso de ovario. La edad media de esas pacientes fue de 47 años, con límites de 9 y 74 años. Un caso se asoció con un tumor proliferativo seroso atípico contralateral. El tratamiento fue quirúrgico y no se identificaron recurrencias en ninguno de los casos. CONCLUSIONES: El cistoadenofibroma seroso suele manifestarse como un quiste ovárico complejo, con componentes sólidos-quísticos y tabiques irregulares; por esto a menudo se diagnostica erróneamente como tumor maligno antes de la intervención. La biopsia por congelación ayuda a confirmar su naturaleza benigna y evita una cirugía extensa innecesaria. El tratamiento consiste, principalmente, en la extirpación quirúrgica del quiste con o sin ooforectomía. El pronóstico suele ser excelente.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Serous ovarian cystoadenofibroma is a relatively rare, slow-growing, benign epithelial neoplasm of unknown cause. Preoperative diagnosis is complex due to the absence of specific symptoms and signs to rule out malignancy. OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the clinical, radiologic, histopathologic features, and medical care of the patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective and descriptive analysis of patients with histopathological diagnosis of ovarian serous cystoadenofibroma attended at the General Hospital of Albacete between the years 2010 to 2022. RESULTS: 635 surgical specimens were analyzed, of which 57.74% corresponded to benign serous neoplasms, 17.41% to borderline serous neoplasms and 24.85% to malignant serous neoplasms. Twenty cases of patients with a diagnosis of ovarian serous cystoadenofibroma were identified. The mean age of these patients was 47 years, with limits of 9 and 74 years. One case was associated with a contralateral atypical serous proliferative atypical tumor. Treatment was surgical and no recurrences were identified in any of the cases. CONCLUSIONS: Serous cystoadenofibroma usually manifests as a complex ovarian cyst, with solid-cystic components and irregular septa; this is why it is often misdiagnosed as a malignant tumor before surgery. Freeze biopsy helps to confirm its benign nature and avoids unnecessary extensive surgery. Treatment consists mainly of surgical removal of the cyst with or without oophorectomy. The prognosis is usually excellent.
RESUMEN
OBJETIVO: Los tumores de ovario borderline (BOT) son un grupo de lesiones neoplásicas de origen epitelial del ovario que presentan características de tumores malignos, pero sin invasión del estroma, y se caracterizan por tener un buen pronóstico. El objetivo del estudio es determinar la concordancia diagnóstica entre biopsia contemporánea y definitiva de los BOT en nuestro centro hospitalario. MÉTODO: Se realizó un estudio analítico retrospectivo de corte transversal de las biopsias contemporáneas y definitivas de BOT en la base de datos de anatomía patológica del Hospital Padre Hurtado, entre los años 2010 y 2019. El análisis estadístico de concordancia se realizó mediante test de kappa. RESULTADOS: Se revisaron 4546 informes de biopsias entre los años 2010 y 2019. Se pesquisaron 163 tumores malignos de ovario, de los cuales 69 (42,33%) correspondieron a BOT. De estos, 39 fueron serosos (56,2%), 28 mucinosos (40,57%) y 2 (2,8%) de tipo endometrioide. El resultado de concordancia diagnóstica de BOT seroso es moderada, del 75,71% con un índice de kappa de 0,5143 (p = 0,000), y el de BOT mucinoso es débil, del 65,71% con un índice de kappa de 0,2398 (p = 0,0222). CONCLUSIONES: Los BOT corresponden a un gran porcentaje dentro de los tumores malignos del ovario, siendo el subtipo seroso el más común. La concordancia entre biopsia contemporánea y definitiva es de débil a moderada.
OBJECTIVE: Borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) are a group of neoplastic lesions of epithelial origin of the ovary that present characteristics of malignant tumors but without stromal invasion and are characterized by having a good prognosis. The objective of the study is to determine the concordance between frozen section and definitive biopsy of BOT in our hospital center. METHOD: A retrospective, cross-sectional analytical study of the frozen section and definitive BOT biopsies was performed in the pathological anatomy database of the Padre Hurtado Hospital during the years 2010 and 2019. The statistical and concordance analysis was performed using kappa tests. RESULTS: 4546 biopsy reports were reviewed during 2010 and 2018. A total of 163 malignant ovarian tumors were investigated, of which 69 (42%) corresponded to BOT. Of these, the most common subtypes were 39 (56.2%) serous, 28 (40.57%) mucinous and 2 (2.8%) endometroid. The concordance results of serous BOT is moderate, 75.71% with a kappa index of 0.5143 (p = 0.000), and mucinous BOT have fair concordance, 65.71% with a kappa index of 0.2398 (p = 0.0222). CONCLUSIONS: BOT correspond to a large percentage of malignant tumors of the ovary, with the serous subtype being the most common. The concordance between contemporary and definitive biopsy is between fair and moderate.

Estrogen modulates platelet activation and aggregation, and it increases the levels of the von Willebrand factor, factors II, VII, VIII, and X, and of fibrinogen, all of which increase the risk for thromboembolism. We report the case of a 59-year-old woman, postmenopausal for 4 years, not using hormone replacement therapy, who was admitted into the emergency room with shortness of breath and increased abdominal volume. After physical examination and imaging and biochemical tests, she was diagnosed with pulmonary thromboembolism and a large left adnexal tumor. The patient was promptly received full anticoagulation therapy for the pulmonary thromboembolism. High levels of estradiol (810.4 pg/mL), anti-Mullerian hormone (16.39 ng/mL), inhibin (11250 pg/mL), and suppressed FSH (<0.16 IU/L) led to a suspicion of granulosa-cell tumor. After clinical stabilization, she underwent to an exploratory laparotomy with total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy to treat the pelvic tumor. Pathologic report confirmed a granulosa-cell tumor.

Resumen OBJETIVO: Determinar el porcentaje de concordancia del estudio transoperatorio con el diagnóstico definitivo de tumores limítrofes de ovario. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional, transversal, retrospectivo y descriptivo efectuado en el Hospital de Ginecoobstetricia 4 Luis Castelazo Ayala, Ciudad de México, en pacientes operadas entre el 1 de enero de 2018 y el 31 diciembre de 2020 de un tumor abdominopélvico, con examen transoperatorio de tumor limítrofe de ovario. El estudio transoperatorio se evaluó como prueba diagnóstica y el diagnóstico definitivo como patrón de referencia para establecer la concordancia del primero con el diagnóstico definitivo de tumores limítrofes de ovario. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 68 tumores limítrofes de ovario, entre los diagnosticados en el estudio transoperatorio y el definitivo. Se encontraron 59 casos con diagnóstico definitivo de tumor limítrofe de ovario. La concordancia con el estudio transoperatorio fue de 63.2%. Se sobrediagnosticaron 2 de 68 pacientes (2.9%) y se subdiagnosticaron 23 de 68 (33.8%). CONCLUSIONES: La concordancia obtenida es semejante a lo reportado en la bibliografía internacional. Los tumores mucinosos mayores de 10 cm son subdiagnosticados con mayor frecuencia debido a su extensión.
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine the percentage of concordance of the transoperative study with the definitive diagnosis of borderline ovarian tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational, cross-sectional, retrospective and des-criptive study performed at the Hospital de Gineco Obstetricia 4 Luis Castelazo Ayala, Mexico City, in patients operated between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2020 for an abdominopelvic tumor, with transoperative examination of borderline ovarian tumor. The transoperative study was evaluated as a diagnostic test and the definitive diagnosis as a reference standard to establish the concordance of the former with the definitive diagnosis of borderline ovarian tumors. RESULTS: Sixty-eight borderline ovarian tumors were analyzed, between those diagnosed in the transoperative study and the definitive one. We found 59 cases with definitive diagnosis of borderline ovarian tumor. The concordance with the transoperative study was 63.2%. Two of 68 patients (2.9%) were overdiagnosed and 23 of 68 (33.8%) were underdiagnosed. CONCLUSIONS: The concordance obtained is like that reported in the international literature. Mucinous tumors larger than 10 cm are most frequently underdiagnosed due to their extension.
RESUMEN
Resumen ANTECEDENTES: Las pacientes con un tumor limítrofe del ovario pueden tratarse conservadoramente en etapas tempranas y con ello conseguir una supervivencia considerable. Las etapas avanzadas tienen un periodo libre de enfermedad prolongado, algunas con crecimiento de implantes peritoneales y recaída posterior a 10 años del tratamiento. OBJETIVO: Conocer cuál es el pronóstico de las pacientes con un tumor limítrofe del ovario, y su tratamiento en México y otros países. MÉTODOLOGÍA: Revisión sistemática de ensayos clínicos recientes registrados en las bases de datos de PubMed, Embase y Cochrane de artículos publicados en inglés y en español entre los años 2006 y 2021. Además, una revisión analítica de la experiencia acumulada en 10 años en la atención de pacientes con tumor limítrofe del ovario atendidas en la Unidad Médica de Alta Especialidad de Oncología del Centro Médico Nacional siglo XXI del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, en la Ciudad de México y otros centros médicos de la República Mexicana. RESULTADOS: Se encontraron 62 artículos relacionados con los términos de búsqueda; de éstos, se descartaron 11 porque no eran artículos originales solo de tumores limítrofes del ovario y 4 porque el texto completo estaba escrito en idiomas diferentes al inglés y español. Uno más se eliminó porque sus conclusiones diferían del objetivo planteado y su sustento se consideró endeble. Al final se analizaron 41 artículos. CONCLUSIONES: Las posibilidades de atención quirúrgica de pacientes con tumor limítrofe del ovario, con preservación de la fertilidad, son altas pues su recurrencia es baja. Los tumores microinvasores mucinosos, con permeación vascular y linfática, tendrán mayor posibilidad de recaída a largo plazo. En general, su pronóstico de supervivencia, en cada etapa, es alto. La linfadenectomía retroperitoneal no está indicada en etapas tempranas de la enfermedad.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Patients with borderline ovarian tumor can be treated conservatively in early stages and thereby achieve considerable survival. Advanced stages have a prolonged disease-free period, some with peritoneal implant growth and relapse after 10 years of treatment. OBJECTIVE: To know the prognosis of patients with borderline ovarian tumor and its treatment in Mexico and other countries. METHODOLOGY: Systematic review of recent clinical trials registered in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases of articles published in English and Spanish between 2006 and 2021. In addition, an analytical review of the experience accumulated in 10 years in the care of patients with borderline ovarian tumor attended at the Oncology High Specialty Medical Unit of the XXI Century National Medical Center of the Mexican Social Security Institute, in Mexico City and other medical centers in the Mexican Republic. RESULTS: We found 62 articles related to the search terms; of these, 11 were discarded because they were not original articles only on ovarian borderline tumors and 4 because the full text was written in languages other than English and Spanish. One more was eliminated because its conclusions differed from the stated objective and its support was considered weak. In the end, 41 articles were analyzed. CONCLUSIONS: The chances of surgical care of patients with ovarian borderline tumor, with fertility preservation, are high because its recurrence is low. Mucinous microinvasive tumors, with vascular and lymphatic permeation, will have a higher chance of long-term relapse. In general, their prognosis for survival, at each stage, is high. Retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy is not indicated in early stages of the disease.
RESUMEN
Abstract Anamnesis: A 5-year-old mixed breed entire bitch was presented with bloody vaginal discharge and abdominal distension. Clinical and laboratory findings: Physical examination and abdominal ultrasonography suggested the presence of a left ovarian tumor. At histopathological examination it was diagnosed as granulosa cell tumor. Treatment approach: An exploratory laparotomy was performed followed by ovariohysterectomy to remove the intra-abdominal mass. Conclusion: The clinical, ultrasonographic and histologic signs in this case support other literature reports. Ultrasonography, in combination with histopathologic analysis is a fundamental tool for detection of ovarian tumors, especially tumors of the granulosa cells.

Abordagem terapêutica: Foi realizada laparotomia exploratória seguida de ovariohisterectomia para remoção da massa intra-abdominal. Conclusão: Os sinais clínicos, ultrassonográficos e histológicos corroboram a literatura, concluindo que a modalidade ultrassonográfica, em associação a análise histopatológica é uma ferramenta fundamental na detecção de neoformações ovarianas, contribuindo significativamente no diagnóstico final.
RESUMEN
Abstract We report a case of ultrasound-guided ex vivo oocyte retrieval for fertility preservation in a woman with bilateral borderline ovarian tumor, for whom conventional transvaginal oocyte retrieval was deemed unsafe because of the increased risk of malignant cell spillage. Ovarian stimulation with gonadotropins was performed. Surgery was scheduled according to the ovarian response to exogenous gonadotropic stimulation; oophorectomized specimens were obtained by laparoscopy, and oocyte retrieval was performed ~ 37 hours after the ovulatory trigger. The sum of 20 ovarian follicles were aspirated, and 16 oocytes were obtained.We performed vitrification of 12 metaphase II oocytes and 3 oocytes matured in vitro. Our result emphasizes the viability of ex vivo mature oocyte retrieval after controlled ovarian stimulation for those with high risk of malignant dissemination by conventional approach.
Resumo Relatamos um caso de obtenção ex vivo de óvulos, guiada por ultrassonografia, para preservação da fertilidade em uma mulher com tumor ovariano borderline bilateral, para quem a recuperação transvaginal convencional foi considerada insegura, devido ao aumento do risco de disseminação de célulasmalignas. Foi realizada estimulação ovariana com gonadotrofinas. A cirurgia foi agendada de acordo com a resposta ovariana à estimulação gonadotrófica exógena; após ooforectomia por laparoscopia, ~ 37 horas após a maturação folicular, procedeu-se à recuperação extracorpórea de oócitos. Umtotal de 20 folículos ovarianos foi aspirado e 16 complexos cumulus foramobtidos, resultando na vitrificação de 12 oócitos maduros e de 3 oócitos imaturos amadurecidos in vitro. Nosso resultado enfatiza a viabilidade da recuperação ex vivo de oócitos maduros após estimulação ovariana controlada para mulheres com alto risco de disseminação maligna pela captação oocitária realizada convencionalmente pela via transvaginal.

Female androgenetic alopecia (FAGA) is a common cause of hair loss in women. Typically, it is characterized by a reduction of hair density on biparietal and vertex regions of the scalp with preservation of the anterior hair implantation line. However, it can also appear with recession of the anterior hairline known as FAGA with male pattern (FAGA-M). In these cases, it is important to consider a state of hyperandrogenism and look for other signs such as hirsutism, acne, and menstrual irregularities. A sudden onset in a postmenopausal woman must make us suspicious of an androgen-secreting tumor. We present two cases of FAGA-M secondary to an ovarian tumor that was successfully resolved after surgical treatment.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN Se presentó el caso de una adolescente de 14 años, en el servicio de Cirugía Pediátrica del Hospital Pediátrico Docente "Pedro Agustín Pérez" de Guantánamo, que refirió aumento de volumen de todo el abdomen y dolor abdominal difuso. Al examinarla se constató una tumoración visible y palpable en hemiabdomen inferior. Los estudios complementarios imagenológicos mostraron una masa ecogénica, heterogénea que ocupaba hipogastrio, más lateralizada hacia la izquierda. Tras discusión colectiva multidisciplinaria se le realizó oforectomía izquierda y los estudios anatomopatológicos confirmaron la presencia de tumor de células de la granulosa de tipo juvenil en ovario izquierdo. Técnicas quirúrgicas que permitan preservar la capacidad reproductiva a niñas con neoplasias malignas, resultan usadas ahora con frecuencia y garantizan una mayor calidad de vida.
ABSTRACT A 14-year-old girl presented to the pediatric surgery department at the Pediatric Teaching Hospital "Pedro Agustín Pérez" in Guantanamo. She reported a difuse abdominal pain and distention. The examination revealed a visible and palpable tumor in the lower hemiabdomen. Complementary imaging studies showed an ecogenic and heterogeneous mass situated in the left hypogastrium. After a multidisciplinary team meeting, an ophthalmectomy was performed, and anatomopathological studies confirmed the presence of juvenile granulosa cells tumor on the left ovary. Surgical techniques that allow girls with malignant neoplasms to preserve their reproductive capacity are now frequently used and they guarantee higher life quality.

Resumen: OBJETIVO: Identificar la posible asociación entre la eosinofilia en sangre y el diagnóstico de cáncer de ovario. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal, retrospectivo, fase 1 de desarrollo de una prueba diagnóstica. Los datos se recolectaron de las historias clínicas de pacientes atendidas en el Hospital San Vicente Fundación con diagnóstico de tumor de ovario entre el 1 de enero de 2011 y el 1 de enero de 2016. Se incluyeron todas las pacientes con impresión diagnóstica de tumor de ovario con, al menos, un hemoleucograma al ingreso. Se excluyeron las historias clínicas de pacientes con antecedente de atopia que estuvieran cursando en el momento con parasitosis o tuvieran diagnóstico de linfoma de Hodgkin, cáncer colorrectal, mama y cuello del útero. Variables de estudio: edad, cantidad absoluta de eosinófilos, subtipo histológico y estadio de la enfermedad. Las variables cuantitativas se evaluaron con las pruebas de Kolmogorow-Smirnov y se aplicó la prueba de Mann Whitney y χ2 para evaluar las variables cualitativas. RESULTADOS: Se encontraron 99 expedientes de pacientes con cáncer de ovario: 11.1% con eosinofilia vs 6% en las controles (p < 0.197). Los subtipos histológicos de células germinales y epiteliales fueron los de mayor eosinofilia y el estadio III fue el de mayor asociación (n = 19). CONCLUSIÓN: Se abre la posibilidad de diseñar un estudio fase I con el fin de identificar la asociación entre la eosinofilia y el diagnóstico de cáncer de ovario, subtipo epitelial y células germinales.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To identify the possible association between blood eosinophilia and diagnosis of ovarian cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional phase 1 study of diagnostic test development was performed. Data were collected on the medical records of patients who consulted at San Vicente Foundation Hospital with a diagnosis of ovarian tumor from 01/01/2011 to 01/01/2016. All patients with a diagnostic impression of ovarian tumor with at least one hemoleukogram at admission were included and those medical records of patients with a history of atopy, who were currently studying with parasitosis or with diagnosis of Hodgkin Lymphoma, colorectal cancer, breast and cervix were excluded. Age, absolute number of eosinophils, histological subtype and stage of the disease were the variables studied. The quantitative variables were evaluated with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests and the Mann Whitney and χ2 test was applied to evaluate the qualitative variables. RESULTS: We found 99 files of patients with ovarian cancer: 11.1% with eosinophilia vs 6% in controls (p < 0.197). The histological subtypes of germinal and epithelial cells were the most eosinophilic and stage III was the most associated (n = 19). CONCLUSION: To design a phase I study in order to identify the association between eosinophilia and diagnosis of ovarian cancer epithelial subtype and germ cells is possible.
RESUMEN
AIMS: The incidence of intraepithelial neoplasia in the fallopian tubes of women over 40 years of age who had undergone elective hysterectomy was assessed at the Aguascalientes Women's Hospital. METHODS: An observational, prospective, descriptive study was carried out at the Aguascalientes Women's Hospital on female patients over 40 years of age who underwent elective hysterectomy between July and October 2017. In these 4 months, 85 patients underwent elective hysterectomy. RESULTS: In this study, 85 patients who received a hysterectomy for non-oncological reasons were analyzed. Salpinx alterations compatible with intraepithelial neoplasia in the Fallopian tubes were found in 2.4% of the patients studied. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of intraepithelial neoplasia in the fallopian tubes of high-risk patients at the Aguascalientes Women's Hospital is 2.4%. Prophylactic salpingectomy is a simple procedure and has the potential to decrease the risk of high-grade ovarian cancer. In premenopausal patients, total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy should be the procedure most often performed.

RESUMEN Se presenta el caso de una gestante a término con un tumor de colisión de ovario izquierdo. Se produce un nacimiento distócico por cesárea y se extrae un recién nacido normal. Posteriormente se realiza la excéresis del tumor de ovario. Tanto la madre como su recién nacido evolucionan de forma satisfactoria. Se concluye el diagnóstico histológico del tumor de ovario como un cistoadenoma mucinoso asociado a un teratoma quístico benigno del ovario.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a pregnant woman at term with left ovarian collision tumor. A dystocic birth is produced by caesarean section and a normal newborn is removed. Subsequently, the excresis of the ovarian tumor is performed. Both the mother and her newborn evolve satisfactorily. The histological diagnosis of the ovarian tumor concluded to be a mucinous cystadenoma associated with a benign cystic teratoma of the ovary.

CONTEXT: Data on prevalence of metabolic risk factors in hyperandrogenic postmenopausal women are limited. Also, the correlation between metabolic disorders and androgen excess in this scenario is poorly understood. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to assess the prevalence of obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and dyslipidemia (DLP) in postmenopausal women with hyperandrogenism of ovarian origin before and after surgical normalization of testosterone (T) levels, as well as the impact of androgen normalization on body mass index (BMI), glucose, and lipid metabolism. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: Tertiary health center. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-four Brazilian women with postmenopausal hyperandrogenism who underwent bilateral oophorectomy between 2004 and 2014 and had histologically confirmed virilizing ovarian tumor (VOT) or ovarian hyperthecosis (OH) and T-level normalization after surgery were selected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: FSH, LH, total and calculated free T, BMI, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) serum levels were accessed before (n = 24) and 24 months after (n = 19) bilateral oophorectomy. RESULTS: At baseline, the overall prevalence rates of obesity, T2D, DLP, and hypertension were 58.3%, 83.3%, 66.7%, and 87.5%, respectively. No significant difference in prevalence was found between patients with OH and VOTs. At follow-up, FSH, LH, and total and free T levels had returned to menopausal physiologic levels, but mean BMI and mean FPG, HbA1c, LDL-C, HDL-C, and TG levels did not differ from baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Postmenopausal hyperandrogenism is associated with adverse metabolic risk. Long-term normalization of testosterone levels did not improve BMI, glucose, or lipid metabolism.
RESUMEN
Abstract Objective The aim of the present study was to describe and analyze data of 57 women with borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) regarding histological characteristics, clinical features and treatment management at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Universidade Estadual de Campinas (Unicamp, in the Portuguese acronym). Methods The present retrospective study analyzed data obtained from clinical and histopathological reports of women with BOTs treated in a single cancer center between 2010 and 2018. Results A total of 57 women were included, with a mean age of 48.42 years old (15.43- 80.77), of which 30 (52.63%) were postmenopausal, and 18 (31.58%) were < 40 years old. All of the women underwent surgery. A total of 37 women (64.91%) were submitted to complete surgical staging for BOT, and none (0/57) were submitted to pelvic or paraortic lymphadenectomy. Chemotherapy was administered for two patients who recurred. The final histological diagnoses were: serous in 20 (35.09%) cases, mucinous in 26 (45.61%), seromucinous in 10 (17.54%), and endometrioid in 1 (1.75%) case. Intraoperative analyses of frozen sections were obtained in 42 (73.68%) women, of which 28 (66.67%) matched with the final diagnosis. The mean follow-up was of 42.79 months (range: 2.03-104.87 months). Regard ingthe current status of the women, 45(78.95%) are alive without disease, 2(3.51%) arealive with disease, 9 (15.79%) had their last follow-up visit > 1 year beforethe performanceof the present study but arealive, and 1 patient(1.75%) died of another cause. Conclusion Women in the present study were treated according to the current guidelines and only two patients recurred.
Resumo Objetivo O objetivo do presente estudo foi descrever uma série de 57 mulheres com tumores borderline de ovário (TBO) em relação às características histológicas, clínicas, e ao manejo do tratamento realizado no Departamento de Obstetrícia e Ginecologia da Universidade Estadual de Campinas (Unicamp). Métodos O presente estudo retrospectivo analisou dados obtidos dos registros clínicos e histopatológicos de mulheres com TBO tratadas em um único centro oncológico de 2010 a 2018. Resultados Um total de 57 mulheres foram incluídas, com uma média de idade de 48,42 anos (15,43-80,77), das quais 30 (52,63%) eram menopausadas, e 18 (31,58%) tinham < 40 anos. Todas as mulheres foram operadas. Um total de 37 mulheres (64,91%) foram submetidas a cirurgia de estadiamento completo para TBO, e nenhuma foi submetida a linfadenectomia pélvica ou paraórtica. O tratamento com quimioterapia foi administrado em duas pacientes que recidivaram. Os diagnósticos histológicos finais foram: seroso em 20 mulheres (35,09%), mucinoso em 26 (45,61%), seromucinoso em 10 (17,54%) e endometrióide em 1 (1,75%). A avaliação histológica intraoperatória foi realizada em 42 (73,68%) das mulheres, das quais 28 (66,67%) foram compatíveis com os diagnósticos finais. O tempo médio de seguimento foi de 42,79 meses (variando de 2,03 a 104,87 meses). Em relação ao status atual das mulheres, 45 (78.95%) estão vivas sem doença, 2 (3,51%) estão vivas com doença, 9 (15.79%) tiveram a última consulta de seguimento há > 1 ano antes da realização do presente estudo, mas estão vivas, e 1 paciente faleceu por outra causa. Conclusão As mulheres do presente estudo foram tratadas de acordo com as recomendações atuais e apenas duas mulheres apresentaram recorrência.
