Overview
Struma ovarii is a potentially malignant tumor, that should be differentiated from an ovarian mass with cystic, solid, or mixed cystic and solid structure. Struma ovarii must be differentiated from other diseases like benign and malignant ovarian neoplasm, ovarian cyst, endometrioma and tubo-ovarian abscess.
Differentiating Struma ovarii from other Diseases
- Struma ovarii is a potentially malignant tumor, that should be differentiated from an ovarian mass with cystic, solid, or mixed cystic and solid structure such as: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] [8][9]
- Various benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms
- Endometrioma
- Ectopic Pregnancy
- Metastatic thyroid cancer to the ovary
- Ovarian cyst(Physiological)
- Tubo-ovarian abscess
- Hydrosalpinx
- Hyperthyroidism
Struma ovarii must be differentiated from other causes of hyperthyroidism such as Grave's disease and toxic nodular goiter:
| Cause of thyrotoxicosis | TSH receptor antibodies | Thyroid US | Color flow Doppler | Radioactive iodine uptake/Scan | Other features |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Struma ovarii | - | Variable | Reduced/absent flow | ↓ | Abdominal RAIU |
| Toxic nodular goiter | - | Multiple nodules | - | Hot nodules at thyroid scan | - |
| Graves' disease | + | Hypoechoic pattern | ↑ | ↑ | Ophthalmopathy, dermopathy, acropachy |
| Toxic adenoma | - | Single nodule | - | Hot nodule | - |
| Subacute thyroiditis | - | Heterogeneous hypoechoic areas | Reduced/absent flow | ↓ | Neck pain, fever, and elevated inflammatory index |
| Painless thyroiditis | - | Hypoechoic pattern | Reduced/absent flow | ↓ | - |
| Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 1 | - | Diffuse or nodular goiter | ↓/Normal/↑ | ↓ but higher than in Type 2 | High urinary iodine |
| Amiodarone induced thyroiditis-Type 2 | - | Normal | Absent | ↓/absent | High urinary iodine |
| Central hyperthyroidism | - | Diffuse or nodular goiter | Normal/↑ | ↑ | Inappropriately normal or high TSH |
| Trophoblastic disease | - | Diffuse or nodular goiter | Normal/↑ | ↑ | - |
| Factitious thyrotoxicosis | - | Variable | Reduced/absent flow | ↓ | ↓ Serum thyroglobulin |
