Small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT) is a rare and aggressive condition that is associated with the mutation and has a dismal prognosis. It is generally diagnosed in young women. Here, we report a case of a young woman with SCCOHT harboring a rare molecular finding with a highly aggressive biological behavior. The patient had a somatic mutation instead of an expected alteration. Even though the patient was treated with high-dose chemotherapy followed by stem cell transplantation, she evolved with disease progression and died 11 months after her first symptoms appeared. We present a literature review of this rare disease and discuss the findings in the present patient in comparison to expected molecular alterations and options for SCCOHT treatment.
卵巢小细胞癌伴高钙血症型(SCCOHT)是一种罕见且侵袭性强的疾病,与 突变相关,预后不良。它通常发生在年轻女性中。在此,我们报告一例年轻女性患有 SCCOHT,具有罕见的分子发现和高度侵袭性的生物学行为。该患者存在体细胞 突变,而不是预期的 改变。尽管患者接受了大剂量化疗后进行干细胞移植治疗,但她仍出现疾病进展,并在首次出现症状后 11 个月死亡。我们对这种罕见疾病进行了文献复习,并将本患者的发现与预期的分子改变以及 SCCOHT 治疗的选择进行了讨论。
