Overview
- The mainstay of treatment for Struma ovarii is surgical therapy.
Medical Therapy
- Pharmacologic medical therapy is recommended among patients with [disease subclass 1], [disease subclass 2], and [disease subclass 3].
- Pharmacologic medical therapies for [disease name] include (either) [therapy 1], [therapy 2], and/or [therapy 3].
- Empiric therapy for [disease name] depends on [disease factor 1] and [disease factor 2].
- Patients with [disease subclass 1] are treated with [therapy 1], whereas patients with [disease subclass 2] are treated with [therapy 2].
- Chemotherapy doesn't seem to have role in the regular management of papillary and follicular thyroid cancer. It is reserved for patients with progressive disease which is usually not controlled by surgery, I131, or other treatment modalities. [1] [2]
Adjuvant treatment modalities
Radioiodine Therapy
- First line of management to be considered for malignant struma ovarii is thyroidectomy and treatment with radioiodine I(131). [3] [4] [5]
- Radioiodine therapy has good outcomes in residual disease or metastatic/recurrent disease. [5]
- Iodine scans have been preferred in the detection of recurrent disease after termination of therapy. [6]
Post I131 therapy monitoring recommendations
Recommendations: [7]
- Post 6 months after the end of treatment:
- Routine clinical examination
- Measure serum thyroglobulin
- Diagnostic I131 scintigraphy (after rhTSH stimulation or withdrawal).
- Every 6 months for 18 months and every year thereafter:
- The mainstay follow-up of clinical examination and thyroglobulin measurements with TSH suppression (thyroglobulin must be < 1 ng/ml).
- Additional imaging such as 131I scintigraphy, 18FDG PET, ultrasonography, CT and/or MRI must be performed in the case of abnormal results.
- Pelvic locations help explain complementary imaging, adapted to the initial stage of the disease.
- Pelvic MRIs after therapy only advised for patient with the metastatic disease.
External beam radiation
- External beam radiation has been beneficial for patients with multiple metastatic lesion and who do absorb radioiodine poorly. [8]
