Article Synopsis
- - This case report describes a rare instance of metastatic signet ring carcinoma in the ovary of a 46-year-old Black African woman, occurring alongside a benign fibroma, highlighting the complexity of ovarian lesions.
- - The patient experienced significant abdominal swelling and was found to have a large mass in the right ovary, along with signs of metastasis in the lungs and liver, as indicated by imaging and elevated tumor markers (CA 125 and CA 19-9).
- - Surgical intervention involved a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, revealing a mix of spindle cells and signet ring cells in the ovarian tissues, illustrating the unique histological findings associated with this case.
Ovarian fibromatosis is a rare non-neoplastic condition that causes ovarian enlargement in women, typically around the age of 25. This enlargement is due to the proliferation of the collagen-producing ovarian stroma. On T2-weighted MRI, a key diagnostic feature of ovarian fibromatosis is the 'black garland sign,' characterized by multilobulated very low signal intensity along the ovarian surface.
