DiscussionThis case report describes an ovarian fibrosarcoma, an unusual type of tumor, but the commonest type of ovary sarcoma. Fibrosarcomas are highly malignant potential neoplasms. Histologically, the neoplasms were densely cellular, with the spindle-shaped cells being arranged in a herringbone or storiform pattern: the tumor cells had indistinct borders, eosinophilic cytoplasm, and hyperchromatic nuclei with prominent nucleoli. There was a moderate to marked degree of pleomorphism, and the number of mitotic figures ranged from four to 25/10 high-power fields (1–4). In this case, more than four mitotic figures/10 high-power fields were demonstrated in the mass. Van Giesan, PTAH and TRPL stainings and Vimentin, Desmin and S-100 immunostainings were performed to demonstrate the mesenchymal tissue and the diagnosis of a fibrosarcoma. KÍ-67 and PCNA immunostaining were used for the differential diagnosis of cell rich fibromas and fibrosarcomas. Macroscopically, fibrosarcomas range in size from 7 to 22cm in the greatest diameter, with a mean value of 12.3 cm. Fibrosarcomas are solid tumors with lobulated, soft, white-gray color, fleshy appearances and wide areas of necrosis and hemorrhage (2, 5). In this case, the mass was nearly 12¿ 10¿ 10 cm in diameter, semisolid with hemorhagic cysts and an irregular contour in the left ovary.A patient’s age with ovarian fibrosarcomas ranges from 42 to 73years with an average of 58years. The principal presenting complaints are pelvic pain, abdominal enlargement or awareness of an abdominal mass (2, 3, 5). Our patient was aged 49 years and presented symptoms with abdominal pain and awareness of a mass.
