Abstract
We present a case of incidental locally advanced serous papillary ovarian carcinoma in a 43-year-old women on endometrial biopsy. On endometrial biopsy, findings of serous carcinoma besides normal endometrial tissue caused diagnostic confusion. However, by thorough clinical investigation, we were able to detect bilateral ovarian masses, which were proved to be serous papillary cystadenocarcinoma. The possibility of a locally advanced ovarian carcinoma should always be kept in mind especially when trying to identify a serous papillary carcinoma in an endometrial biopsy with no endometrial involvement.
Özet
Kırk üç yaşındaki bir kadın hastada endometriyal biyopsi ile rastlantısal olarak saptanan lokal ileri seröz papiller karsinomu olgusu sunulmaktadır. Endometriyal biyopsi materyalinde benign nitelikteki endometriyal dokularla beraber görülen seröz karsinoma ait parçacıklar tanısal problem yarattı. Ancak ayrıntılı klinik incelemeler sayesinde saptanan bilateral over kitlelerinin seröz papiller kistadenokarsinom olduğu kanıtlandı. Endometriyal biyopside endometrial tutulum olmaksızın seröz papiller karsinom tanısı verilirken lokal ileri bir over karsinomunun varlığı akılda tutulmalıdır.
