Özet
Ovarian lipoleiomyoma composed of an admixture of smooth muscle and adipose tissue is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm. A 54-year-old female patient presented with pelvic pain. Ultrasonography revealed a giant mass with cystic-solid appearance filling of the Douglas pouch. With suspicion of ovarian carcinoma, operation was performed. Gross examination of the left ovary showed a mass measuring 20 x 19 x 11 cm. Histopathologically, the tumor consisted primarily of interlacing spindle cells with scattered of mature adipose tissue. Immunohistochemically, spindle cells exhibited vimentin, smooth muscle actin and desmin positivity. Adipose cells revealed positive reaction for S100 protein. A diagnosis of lipoleiomyoma was made. Ovarian lipoleiomyoma may mimic malignancy, both clinically and radiographically, due the the fact that it may reach a giant size and because of its heterogeneous internal structure.
