Abstract

Primary ependymomas of ovary is very seldom. 43 years old woman was accepted to our outpatient clinic because of abdominal pain for more than a year. Multicystic ovarian mas was diagnosed and a laparatomy was performed on her. The histopathologic diagnosis was primary ovarian ependymoma. Glial Fibrillary asidic protein was positive in the immunohistochemical staining which confirms the glial pattern of the tumor. There was not any component of teratoma and neuron specific enolase, chromogranin and cytoceratin 7 was also positive in the tumor cells. Differential diagnosis from the surface epithelial tumors of the ovary in these cases are important for the treatment and prognosis.

Özet

Överin primer saf ependimoması çok nadirdir. 43 yaşında kadın hasta hastanemize 1 yıldan bu yana devam eden pelvik ağrı nedeniyle başvurdu. Yapılan ultrasonografik incelemede sağ överde multiloküle kistik kitle görüldü. Over tümörü ön tanısı ile hastaya laparatomi yapıldı. Ameliyat sırasında histopatolojik tanı amaçlı dondurma-kesme yöntemi uygulandı ve tanı överin ependimoması olarak konuldu. Ameliyat sonrasındaki rutin histopatolojik incelemede, tümör hücrelerinin fıbriller sitoplazmik oluşumlara sahip olduğu, damarların etrafında dizilim göstererek ependimoma için karakteristik olan yalancı rozetler meydana getirdiği görüldü. İmmünohistokimyasal yöntemle uygulanan Glial Fibrillary Asidic Protein pozitif bulundu ve bu bulgu tümörün gilial paterne sahip olduğunu doğruladı. Tümörde teratomu düşündürecek başka komponentler bulunmadı. Neuron Spesifik Enolaz, Kromogranin, Sitokeratin 7 tümör hücrelerinde immünohistokimyasal olarak pozitif bulundu. Histopatolojik kesin tanı överin primer ependimoması olarak kondu. Ayırıcı tanıda överin yüzey epiteli tümörlerinden seröz papiller tümör veya endometrioid tümör düşünüldü. Ependimomanın överin primer epitelyal tümörlerinden ayırımının yapılması tedavinin planlanması ve prognoz açısından önemlidir.
