RESUMO
Los tecomas representan del 1 al 2% de los tumores ováricos. Generalmente son benignos; provienen de las células de la teca interna del ovario y, por tanto, son productores de estrógenos. Además, pueden causar sintomatología hormonal, lo que depende de la edad de la mujer. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 49 años de edad con tumor blanco grisáceo, algunas áreas de edema y hemorragia en la superficie, con aparente contenido gelatinoso que se diagnosticó como tecoma ovárico (AU)
Thecomas represent approximately 12% of all ovarian tumors. Generally, these tumors are benign and arise from cells in the internal theca and are thus estrogen producing. Thecomas can cause hormonal symptoms, depending on patient's of age. We present the case of a 49-year-old patient with a white-gray tumor, some areas of edema and hemorrhage on the surface, and gelatinous content that was diagnosed as an ovarian thecoma (AU)

Se presenta un caso de una paciente de 60 años de edad que fue operada de un tumor maligno de ovario en 1990. Después de 10 años ella presenta un tumor en otro ovario que, extirpado quirúrgicamente, resultó ser un tecoma luteinizado con peritonitis esclerosante (AU)

Granulosa-theca cell tumours are ovarian neoplasms of low malignancy with hormone secreting potential, accounting for 2-3 percent of all ovarian cancers. They have an uncertain clinical course and a potential for late recurrence aftet surgical removal. Clincal features of a patient presenting with pulmonary metastases 21 years after removal of the primary tumour are described, along with a review of the management options.(AU)

The clinical and pathological features of 17 cases of feminizing mesenchymal tumours of the ovary observed over a 14-year period have been reviewed. (1) This group of neoplasms accounts for 3.4 percent of all primary ovarian tumours. (2) One case was observed before puberty and the others equally divided between women in the reproductive and the post-menopausal age groups. Most of the thecomas were observed in the reproductive period. (3) The tumours occurred in nulliparous patients and in those of low parity. (4) Vaginal bleeding and swelling of the abdomen were the most frequent presenting symptoms. The former symptom was, however, notably absent in the cases with pure granulosa cell growths. (5) All cases were treated surgically, the extent of the operation depending on the age of the patient and the presence of association uterine pathology. (6) The very large tumours were almost entirely cystic and all these cases died within 5 years. The thecomas were all benign. (7) Follow-up of these patients for life is essential as late recurrences of the tumours are a prominent feature (AU)
