Overin Dev Primer Leiomyomu: A Case Report

Overin primer leiomyomları nadir olarak görülen, sıklıkla perimenopozal kadınları etkileyen jinekolojik tümörlerdir. Ayırıcı tanıda; over fibro-tekomu, over fibromu, uterin leiomyomu ve uterin leiomyosarkomu akılda tutulmalıdır. MRI ve histopatolojik değerlendirme ayırıcı tanı için yardımcıdır. Bu çalışmada; klinikopatolojik ve MRI bulguları ile tanımlanan overin primer dev leiomyomu sunulmuştur.

Primary ovarian leiomyomas are seen rarely gynecological tumors, which usually affect perimenopausal women. In differential diagnosis, ovarian fibroma, fibro-thecoma, uterine leiomyoma and leiomyosarcoma should be kept in mind. MRI and histopathologic evaluation is helpful to differential diagnosis. In the present study, we report a case of giant primary ovarian leiomyoma described by clinicopathologic characteristics and MRI findings.
