Masculinizing ovarian tumors.

K Ireland, J D Woodruff

    Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey
    |February 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study reclassifies masculinizing ovarian tumors, suggesting "gonadal stromal" replace older terms. The malignancy rate for these tumors is likely around 5%, not 25-30%.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic Pathology
    • Endocrinology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Masculinizing ovarian tumors present diagnostic challenges.
    • Current classifications may require refinement based on histologic criteria.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To discuss criteria for reclassifying masculinizing ovarian tumors.
    • To propose updated terminology and assess malignancy rates.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 194 masculinizing ovarian tumors from the Ovarian Tumor Registry.
    • Histologic examination and analysis of tumor classifications.

    Main Results:

    • Proposed discarding "gynandroblastoma" and "arrhenoblastoma" for "gonadal stromal" tumors.
    • Avoidance of "lipoid tumor" classification with detailed histologic analysis.

  • Estimated malignancy rate for gonadal stromal, Sertoli-Leydig, hilus cell, and adrenal rest tumors is approximately 5%.

    • Conclusions:

    • Histologic reclassification offers a more precise approach to masculinizing ovarian tumors.
    • Updated terminology and a lower malignancy rate estimate are proposed.
    • Further research into the specific histologic features is warranted.
