Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor of the ovary is an unusual neoplasm that belongs to a group of sex cord-stromal tumors of the ovary and accounts for less than 0.5% of all primary ovarian neoplasms. They are often characterized by the presence of mass with androgen production and signs of virilization. Due to the substantially low incidence of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors, information on clinical behavior, prognostic factors, and optimal management arelimited. Here in, we report a case of aprimary ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor in a 21-year-old student, previously diagnosed to have polycystic ovarian syndrome and subsequently congenital adrenal hyperplasia, who presented with a large abdominal mass and features of virilization along with elevated serum testosterone levels. Fertility sparing unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was done and adjuvant chemotherapy was given after histopathology showed moderate to poorly differentiated Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor. Following surgery, her features of hyperandrogenism resolved and serum testosterone levels returned to normal.
卵巢的支持-间质细胞瘤是一种不常见的肿瘤,属于卵巢性索-间质肿瘤的一组,占所有原发性卵巢肿瘤的不到 0.5%。它们的特点通常是存在肿块、产生雄激素和男性化的迹象。由于支持-间质细胞瘤的发病率极低,因此关于其临床行为、预后因素和最佳管理的信息有限。在这里,我们报告了一例 21 岁女学生的原发性卵巢支持-间质细胞瘤,该患者先前被诊断为多囊卵巢综合征,随后又被诊断为先天性肾上腺皮质增生症,她表现为巨大的腹部肿块和男性化特征,同时伴有血清睾酮水平升高。进行了保留生育能力的单侧输卵管卵巢切除术,并在组织病理学显示中-低分化支持-间质细胞瘤后给予辅助化疗。手术后,她的高雄激素血症得到缓解,血清睾酮水平恢复正常。
