Sex cord tumour with annular tubules | |
---|---|
Diagnosis in short | |
SCTAT. H&E stain. | |
| |
LM | well-circumscribed nests of cells with nuclei at the periphery, annular tubules (ring-shaped tubules) with dense hyaline material |
Subtypes | benign, malignant (very rare) |
LM DDx | Sertoli-Leydig tumour, granulosa cell tumour, Brenner tumour |
IHC | inhibin +ve, calretin +ve, pankeratin +ve, EMA -ve, WT-1 +ve |
Site | ovary - see ovarian tumours |
| |
Syndromes | Peutz-Jeghers syndrome |
| |
Prevalence | uncommon |
Prognosis | usually good (benign) |
Clin. DDx | other ovarian tumours |
It is not sex cord tumour with angulated tubules.
General
- Associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome.[1]
- Large tumours more likely sporadic.
- Small tumours more likely Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and incidental.
- Usually benign.
- Malignant cases reported.[2]
Microscopic
Features:
- Well-circumscribed nests of cells with nuclei at the periphery.
- Annular tubules (ring-shaped tubules) with dense hyaline material.
Notes:
- Annular = shape of a ring.[3]
- May focally have features of Sertoli cell tumour or granulosa cell tumour.[4]
DDx:
- Sertoli-Leydig tumour - has double palisading with overlap of the layers.
- Granulosa cell tumour - have Call-Exner bodies, which don't have a well-defined/solid content.
- Brenner tumour - coffee-bean nuclei.
