Overview
The symtoms of sexcord/ stromal ovarian tumors include Adnexal mass, Abdominal & pelvic symptoms, Bloating, Urinary urgency or frequency, Dysphagia(difficulty)eating) or feeling full quickly, Pelvic or abdominal pain. Common complications of sexcord/ stromal ovarian tumors include malignant pleural effusion,bowel obstruction,ascites. The prognosis varies with the subtypes of tumor. Most sexcord-stromal ovarian tumors present at a low tumor stage and also prognosis in these patients is excellent.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- The symptoms of sexcord/ stromal ovarian tumors usually develop in the second/ third/ fourth decade of life, and start with symptoms such as:[1]
- Adnexal mass
- Abdominal & pelvic symptoms
- Bloating
- Urinary urgency or frequency
- Dysphagia(difficulty eating) or feeling full quickly
- Pelvic or abdominal pain
Complications
- Common complications of sexcord/ stromal ovarian tumors include:
Prognosis
- Depending on the extent of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as excellent[2][3][4][5][3][6]
- The prognosis varies with the subtypes of tumor
- Most sexcord-stromal ovarian tumors present at a low tumor stage and also prognosis in these patients is excellent
- The two important predictors for improved survival in patients with ovarian sex cord stromal tumors are young age and early-stage disease
- Patients with juvinile granulosa cell tumors(JGCT) and sertoli-Leydig cell tumors (SLCTs) show greater mitotic activity than all other histologic types
- The presence of greater mitotic activity is associated with a particularly poor prognosis among patients with juvinile granulosa cell tumors(JGCT) and sertoli-Leydig cell tumors (SLCTs)
- Other independent prognostic factors in adult granulosa cell tumors include mitotic index, lymphovascular invasion, cellular atypia, and absence of Call-Exner bodies
- Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors have a 70 to 90 percent five-year survival overall and is mainly related to the stage and degree of histologic differentiation
