Pure immature teratoma of the ovary: analysis of 22 cases.

Abstract:

:Between 1970 and 1991, 22 patients with pure immature teratoma were treated at the Center of Oncology in Krakow. Sixteen (72.7%) patients had stage I, four (18.2%) stage II, and two (9.1%) stage III of disease, nine (40.9%) patients had grade 1, 11 (50%) grade 2, and two (9.1%) grade 3 tumors. Eight stage Ia, grade 1 patients were treated with surgery only, the remaining 14 (63.6%) received postoperative chemotherapy. Five-year NED (no evidence of disease) survival was achieved in 81.8% of patients. Out of 16 stage I patients, 15 (93.8%) survived 5-year NED, out of six stage II and III, three (50%) patients only survived this period. We cured all grade 1 patients, and 81.8% (9/11) grade 2; two grade 3 patients died because of tumors. We also cured all six stage Ia patients, treated with unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (with or without chemotherapy), and all eight stage Ia grade 1 patients treated with surgery only.

  • Atypical polypoid adenomyoma of the uterus. A case report and a review of the literature.

    abstract::Atypical polypoid adenomyoma (APA) is a rare, benign lesion. The tumor occurs in nulliparous women aged 22-48 years (average 33 years) and it has been suggested as being related to prolonged estrogenic stimulation. We describe a case of a 72-year-old woman who presented at our hospital with persistent, worsening urina...
