Abstract

Uterine leomyomas are relatively common affecting 20 to 40% of women at reproductive ages. Although extrauterine myomas are rare, they can incidentally be found during hysterectomy at various abdominal locations such as peritoneum. The exact etiology of peritoneal myomatosis is not fully understood. It generally affects women, who are pregnant or women on oral contraceptives. In the current report, we present a 48-year-old woman, who had undergone hysterectomy 8 years ago and presented with peritoneal myoma. Peritoneal myoma should be born in mind in hysterectomized women with a solid mass on ultrasonography, normal tumor markers, and increased Doppler intratumoral velocity flow. Peritoneal myomatosis might be considered during reproductive or premenopausal period with ongoing hormonal stimulation, even if hysterectomy had been priorly performed.

Özet

Uterin myomlar reprodüktif çağdaki kadınların yaklaşık %20-40'ını etkileyen yaygın bir hastalıktır. Uterus dışında saptanan myom vakaları nadir olmakla birlikte, histerektomi yapılmış hastalarda bile batının çeşitli yerlerinde, özellikle de peritoneal bölgede myom gelişimi izlenebilmektedir. Peritoneal myomatozisin kesin nedeni bilinmemekle beraber sıklıkla reprodüktif çağda, özellikle de oral kontraseptif kullanan kadınlarda veya gebelerde sık görülmektedir. Biz sekiz yıl önce histerektomi yapılmış 48 yaşındaki bir kadında saptanan peritoneal myom vakasını sunduk. Ultrasonografide solid görünümlü, doppler incelemesinde kan akımı fazla, tümör belirteçlerinin normal olduğu kitlelerde hastanın geçirilmiş histerektomisi olsa bile, peritoneal myom akılda tutulmalıdır. Özellikle bizim vakamızdaki gibi, erken yaşlarda histerektomi yapılmış ve halen hormonal stimülasyonu devam eden reprodüktif çağdaki veya premenopozal dönemdeki hastalar peritoneal myom gelişimi açısından da değerlendirilmelidir.
