Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcomas are soft tissue tumors mostly seen in childhood on head and neck region and limbs. Primary ovarian rhabdomyosarcomas are extremely rare, and are presented as a component of malignant mixed mullerian tumors. 26-year-old female presented with abdominal mass and pain. The abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography showed bilateral ovarian tumors. Microscopic examination revealed small tumor cells with oval nucleus and eosinophilic cytoplasm composing an alveolar pattern. Tumor cells were stained positively with smooth muscle actin and desmin. The case was evaluated as stage III and died five months after the surgery. By the association of the histopathologic and immunohistochemical findings this case was diagnosed as primary rhabdomyosarcoma of ovary. This case is presented because it is unusual and rare tumor of the ovary.

Özet

Rabdomyosarkomlar genetikle çocukluk döneminde, baş boyun bölgesi ve ekstremitelerde görülen yumuşak doku tümörleridir. Primer over yerleşimli rabdomyosarkomlar ise çok nadir olup malign mikst müllerian tümörlerin bir komponenti şeklinde izlenmektedirler. Karında kitle ve ağrı yakınmaları ile başvuran 26 yaşındaki olguya yapılan abdominal ultrasonografi ve bilgisayarlı tomografi sonrası her iki overde tümöral oluşumlar saptanmıştır. Cerrahi olarak çıkarılan tümörün mikroskobik incelemesinde, alveolar boşlukları döşeyen oval çekirdekli eozinofilik sitoplazmalı küçük hücreler izlenmiştir. Immünohistokimyasal olarak tümör hücreleri desmin ve düz kas aktini ile boyanmıştır. Evre III olarak değerlendirilen olgu, operasyondan 5 ay sonra yaşamını yitirmiştir. Histopatolojik ve immünohistokimyasal bulgular eşliğinde överin primer rabdomyosarkomu olarak değerlendirilen olgu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
