Abstract:
Objective To compare the MRI features of ovarian thecoma-fibroma and adult-type ovarian granulosa cell tumor (OGCT),and to investigate the differential value of MRI.Methods 13 patients (8 cases of ovarian thecoma-fibroma,5 cases of adult-type OGCT)confirmed by pathology were collected,in which MRI findings were analyzed retrospectively.Results 13 lesions were all unilateral.The shape of more lesions appeared round or oval,and huge lesions were lobulated.Most tumors were dominant solid and well-defined borders.The length-diameter of ovarian thecoma-fibromas ranged from 23 to 268 mm,with the mean diameter of (124±84)mm;on T1WI the solid part of tumors showed equal signal in 5 cases,slight lower signal in 3 cases,on T2WI all tumors were heterogeneous signal,6 lesions appeared equal signal with obscure nebulous high signal;all of 8 lesions were enhanced slightly;4 cases were accompanied with pelvic effusion and other type tumors of the ovarian.The length-diameter of adult-type OGCT tumors ranged from 27 to 110 mm, with the mean diameter of (84±33)mm;the solid part of lesions showed slight lower signal on T1WI and high signal on T2WI,the honeycomb and fissure cystic areas were found in all tumors,4 cases were accompanied with hemorrhage;all tumors were enhanced from moderately to highly,and delay contrast enhancement;the cases were accompanied with endometrial hyperplasia in 3 cases,endometrial carcinoma in 1 case.The non-enhanced cystic areas of two groups of tumors showed lower signal on T1WI and high signal on T2WI. Conclusion There are different characteristics between ovarian thecoma-fibroma and adult-type OGCT on MRI findings,which are helpful to the differential diagnosis.
