ABSTRACT
Gynandroblastoma is a rare variant of ovarian sex cord stromal tumours that demonstrates morphological evidence of both male and female differentiation. We report a new case of gynandroblastoma in a 22-year-old nulliparous female with a history of menstrual disturbance. Physical examination disclosed a painless pelvic mass measuring 20 cm across with normal secondary sex characteristics, and no signs of virilisation. Histological examination of the surgically resected primary tumour revealed a predominant adult granulosa cell component admixed with a minor Sertoli cell component that did not exceed 20% of the tumour. Immunohistochemical analysis showed positive immunostaining of Sertoli cell areas with inhibin. The final diagnosis was gynandroblastoma. The post-operative course was uneventful and there was no evidence of recurrence during the 9-month follow-up period.

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is an uncommon benign tumor of the ovary, representing 2-6% of all stromal ovarian tumors. Comparatively to other fibrothecals tumors, SST is distinct by particular clinical and histological features. A case of SST occurring in 15-year-old female and review of the literature are described in the present article.

The non-hemodynamic pulmonary oedema by increase alveolo-capillary permeability or Adult Respiratory distress Syndrome (ARDS), has many causes and determine an acute insufficiency respiratory who needed mechanic ventilation. It can above all progressing to interstitial fibrosis after deadly. The writer present lesional pulmonary oedema case which evolved to fibrosis in a 17 old patient. This patient has been operated for duodenal ulcer with bi-vagotomy and antrectomy and presented a post operatory shock. The particularity of this observation is The fibrosis evolution to an cartilaginous metaplasia. The lesional pulmonary oedema has usually serious prognosis because the mortality is from 50 to 80% in the literature review.
