A pure Sertoli cell tumor of the ovary in a 10-year-old female.
OBJECTIVE
To document an unusual presentation of a pure Sertoli Cell tumor.


METHODS
Case report.


RESULTS
We present a 10-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and diarrhea with no symptoms of puberty. Surgical exploration revealed a metastatic pure Sertoli Cell tumor, which was treated with resection and chemotherapy.


CONCLUSIONS
Sertoli cell tumors are rare occurrences and should be considered in the differential diagnosis for a prepubescent girl with an abdominal mass.
