Az ovarialis strumák a petefészek-teratomák kevesebb mint 3%-át adják. Megjelenhet bennük a pajzsmirigy szinte minden betegsége, és előfordulhat malignitás is. A szerzők esetében egy 31 éves nő bal oldali petefészekcisztáját távolították el, amely az ovariumcarcinoma klinikai tüneteit mutatta, úgymint nagy hasi térfoglalás, ascites, emelkedett szérum-CA 125-szint. A szövettani diagnózis benignus struma ovarii volt. A posztoperatív pajzsmirigyműködés normális maradt.

Benign Ovarian Tumor

CONTEXT: Meigs' syndrome consists of a benign ovarian tumor accompanied by ascites and hydrothorax. Elevated serum CA 125 levels in postmenopausal women with solid adnexal masses, ascites and pleural effusion are highly suggestive for malignant ovarian tumor. However, patients with Meigs' syndrome can also have elevated serum CA 125 levels. The authors report a case of Meigs' syndrome with elevated CA 125 level. OBJECTIVE: This is a case report of Meigs' syndrome with elevated CA 125 level. CASE REPORT: A 65-year-old Brazilian woman had presented progressive dyspnea, weight loss and decline in general condition over the 7 months preceding admission to our service. In another hospital, the patient had been submitted to thoracic drainage due to pleural effusion. With recurrence of the pleural effusion and increase in abdominal volume due to ascites and a pelvic mass, the patient sought our service. Transvaginal ultrasound showed an extensive adnexal solid mass of 16.4 x 10.8 cm located in the pelvis without exact limits, and the serum CA 125 level was elevated. With a preoperative diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma, the patient was submitted to exploratory laparotomy, which revealed a left ovarian tumor. The frozen section diagnosis was thecoma. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed. The histology of the specimen confirmed the diagnosis of thecoma. The patient was asymptomatic with a normal serum CA 125 level 20 months after the operation.

Necrolytic acral erythema (NAE) is a relatively newly described dermatologic disease that is often associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Oral zinc therapy is a successful treatment; however, therapy is often delayed due to misdiagnosis. There are limited reports of NAE in the literature. This paper presents a case of NAE in a 68-year-old male with untreated HCV, whose NAE was diagnosed and treated as recurrent cellulitis for 12 years. He had low serum zinc and elevated serum glucagon levels. Elevated glucagon is not often reported in NAE, but the patient’s CT abdomen was negative, ruling out glucagonoma and necrolytic migratory erythema. He improved with oral zinc replacement and was referred to the hepatology department for HCV treatment. This paper additionally presents a review of the literature for NAE cases.
