Abstract

Sertoli Leydig cell tumor (SLCT) of ovary is an unusual neoplasm that belongs to a group of Sex Cord-Stromal tumors of Ovary and account for less than 0.5%of all primary ovarian neoplasms. Very few cases have been documented in the literature so far. Herein we report a case of Primary Sertoli-Leydig cell Tumor (SLCT) in a 16-years old girl who presented with amenorrhea of 7 months along with hirsutism and hoarseness of voice.
