[Uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex-cord tumor].
Uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumors are rare and few cases are published in the literature. The authors describe a recently diagnosed one. The clinical features consisted of: abnormal vaginal bleeding and enlargement of the uterus, which allowed confusion with several types of uterine pathology: benign or malignant one; the diagnosis is exclusively histopathological. These tumors have a benign biological behaviour.
