[Ovarian tumor and Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. A case report].

A case of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome associated with ovarian mucinous cystadenoma and ovarian sex cord tumor with annular tubules is presented. The sec cord tumor with annular tubules was described in 1970 by Scully, who recognized its striking association with the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. This tumor is an almost constant finding in patients' ovaries with this disorder. Three cases of ovarian mucinous cystadenoma and sex cord tumor with annular tubules associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome were found in the literature. Our observation confirms that gynecologic abnormalities are an important manifestation of the syndrome and require careful surveillance.

Favorable cytogenetic abnormalities in secondary leukemia.

The authors report on five patients with secondary leukemia (SL) and one of the "specific" chromosomal rearrangements usually encountered in de novo acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia: inv(16), t(15;17), t(8;21), and t(9;11). They were characterized by solid tumor as the primary malignancy in four of five cases, absence of preleukemic phase in all cases, and myelodysplastic features in one of five cases only. All patients achieved complete remission (CR) with aggressive chemotherapy. Only two relapsed, but follow-up is still limited in the three remaining cases. Cytogenetic analysis is important in all younger patients with SL, especially if unusual features (such as absence of preleukemic phase or myelodysplastic features) are found. Aggressive chemotherapy appears to be indicated in those patients if a "specific" rearrangement is found.
