Abstract
Sex cord-stromal tumors account for approximately 7% of all primary ovarian tumors. Sertoli-Leydig Cell Tumors and Granulosa cell tumors are subtype of sex cord stromal tumor of the ovary. Sertoli-Leydig Cell Tumors account for less than 0.2-0.5% of all primary ovarian neoplasms. Granulosa cell tumors account for 3-5% of all primary ovarian neoplasms. Mixed subtype of sex cord stromal tumors are very rare a condition. Very few case reports have been documented in the literature so far. Despite the rather large lesion at the time of diagnosis in sex cord stromal tumors, 80-90% of patients will present at stage 1. A case of 21-year-old nullipar woman who presented with a 2-month history of a pelvic pain, menorrhagia, rapidly increasing abdominal distention, and alopecia. Pelvic ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed 175x170x93 mm septal cystic mass in the left ovary. The patient underwent left unilateral salpingoophorectomy because of huge septal cystic mass and fertility preserving surgery. In histopathological examination these masses were evaluated as mixed (Granulosa cell/Sertoli-Leydig Cell Tumors) sex cord stromal tumor. This case was chosen and reported due to its rarity and clinical properties. Key words: Granulosa cell tumor, magnetic resonance imaging, ovary, Sertoli-Leydig cell Tumor
