[Androgenization in postmenopause in rare ovarian tumors--2 case reports].
Androgen-producing tumours of the ovary are uncommon in postmenopausal women. We report on symptoms of two patients with androgenization due to a stromal-Leydig cell tumour and a steroid-cell tumour, respectively. Clinical signs and symptoms, laboratory findings and therapeutic consequences are discussed.
