Efficacy of selective venous sampling to localize a small ovarian androgen-producing tumor.
Two cases of androgen-producing tumors, including a Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor in a woman of reproductive age and a Leydig cell tumor in a postmenopausal woman, are reported herein. In both cases, only selective venous sampling was able to detect the presence of the androgen-producing ovarian tumors.
