Bilateral Sclerosing Stromal Ovarian Tumor in an Adolescent

Abstract EN

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is a rare, benign, sex cord stromal tumor occurring predominantly in younger women in the 2nd and 3rd decades of life.

It typically presents unilaterally with only 2 previously reported cases of bilateral presentation.

Common clinical presentations include pelvic or abdominal pain, a mass, or menstrual changes.

Although occasionally presenting with hormonal manifestations, virilization as a result of androgen production by the tumor is rare.

Here we present an extremely rare case of a sclerosing stromal ovarian tumor in a 14-year-old patient with bilateral presentation and with clinical and biochemical evidence of hyperandrogenemia.
