Ovarian clear cell tumor was previously thought to originate from the mesonephric duct, but it is now clear that it originates from the Mullerian duct epithelium. Ovarian clear cell tumors can be divided into benign, borderline, and malignant. The average age of onset is 48 to 58 years, but most are over 45, and almost all cases are over 25 years old. Benign ovarian clear cell tumors are rare, and borderline ones are relatively rare. Typical symptoms include loss of appetite, muscle weakness, polyuria, thirst, and so on.

1. What are the causes of ovarian clear cell tumor
There have been reports of clear cell tumors in the lower female reproductive tract in young women, which are related to the use of estrogen during pregnancy. The ovarian clear cell tumor is mainly classified into the following three categories according to benign and malignant nature:
1. Benign:Composed of fibroma-like tissue lined with clear cells and hobnail cells.
2. Borderline:Tumors vary in size and are lobulated, with a solid or solid-cystic configuration. The few diagnosed borderline clear cell tumors are mostly adenofibromas, others include clear cell adenomas and cystadenofibromas. The epithelium of the tumor nests is composed of 1 to 3 layers of polygonal or spiculated cells, atypical cells are visible, mitotic figures are not more than 3 per 10 high-power fields, and there is no stromal infiltration.
3、恶性:
2, Most are cystic and solid, tough, of unequal size, unilateral is more common, and bilateral can reach 24%. The cross-section is meaty, or pale yellow, often accompanied by hemorrhage and necrosis. Careful examination often reveals the presence of endometriosis. Under the microscope, clear cells, awl cells, and eosinophilic cells can be seen. The nuclei are atypical, and nuclear division can be seen, which is more than交界性.. What kind of complications can ovarian clear cell tumor easily lead to
There is a close relationship between clear cell carcinoma and endometriosis, and the incidence of pelvic endometriosis can reach 25% to 50%, higher than all other ovarian cancers including ovarian endometrioid carcinoma.
3. What are the typical symptoms of ovarian clear cell tumor
Ovarian clear cell tumor often presents with abdominal mass and abdominal distension; half of the patients have a history of infertility, menstrual disorders, or postmenopausal bleeding; about 10% have hypercalcemia, the typical symptoms are decreased appetite, muscle weakness, polyuria, thirst, etc. After surgical resection of the tumor, hypercalcemia often returns to normal within 36 hours. If the tumor recurs, blood calcium will rise again. There is a close relationship between clear cell carcinoma and endometriosis, and the incidence of pelvic endometriosis can reach 25% to 50%, higher than all other ovarian cancers including ovarian endometrioid carcinoma. Ovarian clear cell carcinoma often has a large mass, and most of the diagnoses are early, up to 50% to 65%, which is different from other ovarian epithelial carcinomas.
4. How to prevent ovarian clear cell tumor
At present, there are no targeted preventive measures for ovarian clear cell tumor. High-risk groups should do regular physical examinations, early detection, and early treatment. After treatment, pay attention to follow-up monitoring of tumor markers to prevent recurrence.
5. What kind of laboratory tests do patients with ovarian clear cell tumor need to do
Diagnosis can be made based on the patient's clinical manifestations, signs, and the following examination results.
First, laboratory examination
1, Serum electrolyte detection: Serum calcium, etc.
2, Blood examination: Determine whether there is liver and kidney function damage and whether there are abnormalities in blood routine.
3, Tumor marker examination: Ker, EMA, LeuM1, B72.3 show diffuse strong positivity.
Second, other auxiliary examinations
1, Laparoscopic examination.
2, Imaging examination: Ultrasound, CT, MRI help diagnose the size and location of the tumor.
3, Histopathological examination: Can clearly determine the nature of the tumor.
6. Dietary taboos for patients with ovarian clear cell tumor

7. Conventional Methods of Western Medicine for the Treatment of Ovarian Clear Cell Tumors
Patients with ovarian clear cell tumors should undergo systemic examination and determine the scope of surgery according to the stage. Adjuvant chemotherapy is given after surgery. Compared with the effect of platinum treatment on serous carcinoma, the response rate of the former to cisplatin is significantly lower, and better chemotherapy regimens need to be sought.
