Abstract

neumatosis cystoides-like pattern is a group of histopathological features occasionally found in ovarian teratomas. This is a case of laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy performed for incomplete adnexal torsion where histology reported mature ovarian teratoma with “pneumatosis cystoides- like appearance”. This term is used to describe the presence of multiple cystic spaces within the tumor wall. It has been reported also in other organs, such as gastrointestinal tract, urinary bladder and the vagina. It may be secondary to mechanical, bacterial or ischemic causes, with the pathogenesis remaining unclear. It is benign and may exist more often than reported.

Özet

Pneumatosis cystoides benzeri örüntü, yumurtalık teratomlarında bazen görülen bir grup his- topatolojik özelliktir. Bu, histolojinin “pneumatosis cystoides benzeri görünüm” ile olgun over teratomu olarak rapor ettiği, inkomplet adneksiyal torsiyon için uygulanmış laparoskopik over kistektomisi vakasıdır. Bu terim, tümör duvarı içinde çoklu kistik boşlukların varlığını tanımlamak için kullanılır. Gastrointestinal sistem, idrar kesesi ve vajina gibi diğer organlarda da bildirilmiştir. Patogenezi belirsizken mekanik, bakteriyel veya iskemik nedenlere ikincil olabilir. İyi huyludur ve bildirilenden daha sık görülebilir.
