Abstract

Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is believed to be a rare, benign, sex cord stromal tumor occurring predominantly in younger women in the 2nd and 3^rd decades of their life. The prevalent clinical presentations include pelvic or abdominal pain, mass, or menstrual changes. Even though it is occasionally accompanied by hormonal manifestations, virilization as a result of androgen production by the tumor is rare. The present research was conducted to present a rare case of bilateral sclerosing stromal ovarian tumor in a 20-year-old patient with irregular menstruation and pelvic pain. All of the sclerosing stromal tumors were benign and were treated successfully with enucleation or unilateral oophorectomy.
