Description
<p>Ovarian steroid cell tumors (SCTs) are rare and account for 0.1% of ovarian tumors. Among patients affected by tumors, 56-77% have virilizing symptoms. This symptom is useful for detecting of SCT. The patient in the present study did not show any virilizing symptoms. Therefore, diagnosis of an SCT was difficult. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a heterogenous mass on T2-weighted imaging and hyperintensity on diffusion-weighted imaging in the right ovary. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography showed high 18F-FDG uptake (maximal standardized uptake value (SUV max) :17). Therefore, ovarian cancer was suspected. Before surgery, we measured testosterone levels to determine the possibility of ovarian sex cord-stromal tumor because she had amenorrhea for nine months and had a solid ovarian tumor. Exploratory laparotomy was performed for diagnosis of ovarian cancer or a sex cord-stromal tumor because the testosterone level was high. Intraoperative frozen section analysis showed a benign sex cord-stromal tumor and R oophorectomy was then performed. Histomorphology and immunohistochemistry of the tumor suggested the diagnosis of a benign ovarian SCT. Postoperatively, testosterone levels became normal in 1 week and menstruation appeared in 1 month. The patient continued to have a regular menstrual cycle and good health for 30 months.
