Virilizing Sclerosing-Stromal Tumor of the Ovary in a Young Woman With McCune Albright Syndrome: Clinical, Pathological, and Immunohistochemical Studies.
Conclusion:This observation extends the clinical spectrum of ovarian pathology of women with MAS. However, the mechanisms causing this ovarian tumor remain unclear, even if the gsp oncogene has been implicated in the pathogenesis of some gonadal tumors.

Hysterectomy for recurrent postmenopausal bleeding revisited: missed sclerosing stromal ovarian tumour.
We report a rare case of an ovarian sclerosing stromal tumour with an atypical presentation, in that it gave rise to recurrent postmenopausal bleeding. PMID: 22865180 [PubMed - in process] (Source: Hong Kong Med J)

Fine needle aspiration cytology in ovarian lesions: an institutional experience of 584 cases
Conclusion: FNAC has a high specificity for diagnosis of ovarian/adnexal lesions but greater experience is required for the accurate subtyping of neoplasms and sensitivity is limited by inconclusive/inadequate results. (Source: Cytopathology)

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary: ultrasound elastography and MRI findings on preoperative diagnosis
We present the imaging findings of ultrasonography, ultrasound elastography, and dynamic MRI in the diagnosis of SST. Abdominal ultrasound elastography is a novel technique that depicts the stromal structure of SSTs by comparing the elasticity of the tumor and the myometrium using quantitative strain values.

Fine needle aspiration cytology in sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary: A series of three cases
We present FNAC findings in a series of three cases of SST and discuss the cytomorphological features. We have described Call‐Exner like bodies in one of our cases and hence, suggest that these may not be an exclusive feature of granulosa cell tumor. Diagn. Cytopathol. 2011; © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Clinicopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of sclerosing stromal tumours of the ovary
Conclusions The characteristic histopathological features we observed in our study are usually adequate for the diagnosis of SSTs. Although inhibin-α, CD 99 and desmin staining may be a useful and reliable tool for SST diagnosis in problematic cases, an immunohistochemical panel will not discriminate from other tumours in the sex cord-stromal group.

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary in a 4-year-old girl with characteristics of an ovarian signet-ring stromal tumor.
We report a case of a right OSST with prominent characteristics of signet-ring stromal tumor in a 4-year-old girl with symptoms of premature thelarche. We describe the clinical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical findings and review the literature. To our knowledge, the 4-year-old patient presented here is the youngest case of OSST reported in premenarchal children. The presence of non-mucin/non-lipid obvious signet-ring-like cells in this case suggests a possible relationship between OSST and signet-ring stromal tumor of the ovary.

Sclerosing Stromal Tumor of the Ovary.
Sclerosing stromal tumors are benign ovarian neoplasms of the sex cord stromal category which occur predominantly in the second and third decades of life. Herein, we report a 26-year-old woman who developed a sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary with irregular menses but normal hormonal status. She was suspected to have a malignant tumor and underwent bilateral oophorectomy. Other ovarian stromal tumors include fibroma and thecoma which tend to occur in the fifth and sixth decades of life. It is, therefore, necessary to keep in mind the possibility of a sclerosing stromal tumor in a young woman. PMID: 18759528 [Pu...

Ovarian Spindle Cell Lesions: A Review With Emphasis on Recent Developments and Differential Diagnosis
Ovarian lesions composed of spindle cells comprise a heterogeneous group; most are neoplastic but several non-neoplastic conditions are also composed of spindle cells. This review discusses the main differential diagnoses of an ovarian spindle cell lesion, especially concentrating on the recent literature. The majority of ovarian spindle cell lesions fall into the broad category of fibromatous neoplasms whereas others in the sex cord-stromal group may also be composed of spindle cells, including thecomas, granulosa, and Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors and rarer neoplasms, such as sclerosing stromal tumor and signet-ring stromal...
