Abstract

Sclerosing stromal tumour (SST) is a rare benign ovarian neoplasm of stromal origin, distinct from the thecoma-fibroma group and steroid cell tumours clinically and pathologically. Sclerosing stromal tumour was first described in 1973 by Chalvardjian and Scully, it predominantly affects young women with a mean age of 28 years.We report two cases of unilateral sclerosing stromal tumour in two nulliparous women aged 29 years and 34 years. They presented with acute lower abdominal pain and right-sided abdominal swelling. Both had laparatomy which revealed right adnexal mass. Tissue diagnosis revealed a cellular tumour arranged in pseudolobular pattern composed of spindle-shaped fibroblastic cells and haemangiopericytoma-like areas.
