Abstract

Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor is an uncommon tumor that may manifest itself by a dramatic virilizing influence. This neoplasm is composed of sex-cord and stromal elements, and its components have the capacity to a greater or lesser extent to
recapitulate
the cells of the testis at different stages of development. The patient was 33 years old married woman. She complained of amenorrhea for 18 months. Her clitoris became hypertrophied. She palpated abdominal mass. So the patient underwent
unilateral
salpingoophorectomy. The mass was 3×2.5 cm in size and 620 gm in weight. Microscopic diagnosis of the tumor was Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, intermediate differentiated type. Plasma testosterone dropped from 3.28ng/ml to 0.1ng/ml after the
operation.
