Bilateral Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor of the ovary with Omental metastasis: A Rare case Report

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4

Abstract

Abstract: Sertolileydig cell tumors are exceedingly uncommon tumors of the ovary accounting for less than 0.5% of all ovarian neoplasms and 1% of sex cord tumors. These tumors are functional and secrete testosterone and only rarely they are estrogenic. Hence the patients present with virilization features. Most of the tumors are unilateral and bilaterality is extremely rare. Here we report an unusual case of bilateral sertoli-leydig cell ovarian tumor with vascular invasion and omental deposit in a 30 year old female with history of four months of amenorrhea. Keywords:Sertoli-Leydig, Omental, Bilateral
