Ovarian Mesonephric-like Adenocarcinoma Recurring With a Rhabdomyosarcoma Component: A Case Report.

Mesonephric-like adenocarcinoma (MLA) has recently been described as a tumor of the endometrium or ovaries, which, morphologically and immunohistochemically, resembles mesonephric adenocarcinoma arising mostly in the uterine cervix. Herein, we report, to our knowledge, the first case of ovarian MLA that developed into an extremely rapidly growing recurrent mesonephric-like carcinosarcoma, as confirmed by a genomic profiling test. A 51-year-old woman underwent chemotherapy with complete debulking surgery for ovarian carcinoma. Pathologically, the patient was diagnosed with stage IVB ovarian MLA. Subsequent to 15 months of complete remission, an enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a solid tumor of 10 cm diameter in the abdominal cavity. Secondary surgery was terminated with a 2 cm2 tumor biopsy specimen collection considering perioperative complications. Histologically, the tumor consisted of short spindle cells, and immunohistochemical staining revealed a rhabdomyosarcomatous profile without an epithelial component. Despite treatment for the sarcoma, she died 3 months after the detection of the tumor. The genomic profiling of the primary ovarian carcinoma and secondary resected tumor biopsy specimens revealed an identical KRAS mutation in both. Therefore, we concluded that the ovarian MLA recurred with a rhabdomyosarcoma component.
