Eur J Gynaecol Oncol. 2006;27(1):86-7. Sertoli cell tumor: a rare case in an elderly patient. Nicoletto MO, Caltarossa E, Donach M, Nardelli GB, Parenti A, Ambrosini A. SourceDepartment of Medical Oncology, Padua Hospital, Padova, Italy. Abstract Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors constitute < 1% of ovarian tumors, mostly in young women with virilization; however, not all present endocrine manifestations. A 72-year-old female presented with an abdominal mass and no signs of virilization. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, omentectomy and selective pelvic lymphadenectomy was performed. The pathologic diagnosis was poorly-differentiated sex cord-stromal tumor with Sertoli cells. No adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation was administered. At 12-month follow-up the patient showed no evidence of disease.
