Sertoli-Leydig cell tumours are part of the sex cord-stromal tumour group of ovarian carcinomas.
The average age of patients with Sertoli-Leydig tumours is 25, and one-third present with virilization.
Masculinization is preceded by oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea and defeminization.
This group of tumours is rare, comprising less than 1% of ovarian neoplasms.
There are many different subtypes.
The most typical is composed of tubules lined by Sertoli cells and interstitial clusters of Leydig cells.
As a group, 25% of these tumours are malignant.
