COMPLETE REMISSION OF MEDICALLY TREATED LUTEINIZED THECOMAS WITH SCLEROSING PERITONITIS.
Journal of Gynecology Obstetrics and Human Reproduction 2020 April 11
We describe the first French patient treated for sclerosing peritonitis syndrome associated with lutheinized thecomas. At 42 years old, she had respiratory distress with increased abdominal volume. Physical examination revealed ascites, pleural effusions, and two mobile latero-uterine masses. Radiological examinations revealed bilateral ovarian masses of 10 cm. Bilateral adnexectomy was performed bylaparotomy. Histological analysis concluded that there were benign luteinized thecomas. Until the 36th postoperative day, the general condition of the patient deteriorated to become critical. A second surgical procedure was attempted revealing sclerosing fibrosis preventing access to the peritoneal cavity. Subsequently, a medical treatment combining parenteral nutrition, high intravenous doses of corticosteroids, antiestrogens, colchicine and sandostatin was administered and effective allowing continuity recovery 15 months later. The clinical outcomes has been favorable at 24 month later.
