Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Oncology
  • Endocrinology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Strumal carcinoid tumors are rare ovarian neoplasms.
  • They represent a mixed tumor type with both carcinoid and thyroid elements.
  • Typically, these tumors are unilateral.

Observation:

  • A case of bilateral strumal carcinoid tumor in the right and left ovary is presented.
  • The patient was a 79-year-old euthyroid woman.
  • The tumor was discovered incidentally during necropsy.

Findings:

  • The presented case is rare due to its bilateral nature.
  • No evidence of carcinoid syndrome was observed in the patient.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of strumal carcinoid tumor.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of strumal carcinoid tumor presentation.
  • Highlights the importance of thorough examination in ovarian pathology.
  • Suggests bilateral occurrence, though rare, should be considered in differential diagnosis.
