| pubmed-article:3709923 | pubmed:abstractText | A primary ovarian carcinoid tumour of insular strumal type in a 78-yr-old patient is reported. Strumal carcinoid of the ovary is a rare tumor of germ cell origin characterized by an intimate mixture of thyroid tissue and carcinoid. Correct diagnosis depends on a pathologic examination with the use of special stains. Because of its benign character, the treatment is primarily a surgical one and consists of a simple oophorectomy or salpingo-oophorectomy. | lld:pubmed |
