| الملخص: | Struma ovarii, also called ovarian goiter, is a rare congenital entity, a monodermal
variant of ovarian teratoma. Most often benign, it represents 1% of all ovarian tumors
and preferentially affects women in their fifties. Although the thyroid tissue is
reigning, it is exceptionally hyperfunctional. Preoperative recognition of struma ovarii
is very difficult to achieve and indifference to other ovarian lesions is very common.
Clinical and paraclinical appearance is commonly non-specific and does not provide
the diagnosis which is only histopathological, generally unexpected on analysis of the
resected tumour. |
