ABSTRACT
The case is presented of a young female with virilization signs and total circulating testosterone levels above 4 ng/ml, without a concomitant increase in cortisol, 17 OH-progesterone, DHEA-S, or androstenedion levels. On CT scan exam a tumoral mass in the left ovary was observed with polycystic characteristics similar to those observed in ovarian cystadenoma, inspite of the fact that most androgenic ovarian tumors are solid. The pathological study revealed an ovarian Sertoli-Leydig tumor associated to a reticular pattern with heterologous chondroid and mucinoid elements of cystadenoma.
