A Rare Presentation of Paraovarian Sclerosing Stromal Tumor with High Mitotic Activity.
BACKGROUND
Sclerosing stromal tumor is an extremely rare type of benign ovarian sex cord stromal tumor.


METHODS
The benign characteristic of this tumor is well known but we present an uncommon case of paraovarian sclerosing stromal tumor with high mitotic activity.


CONCLUSIONS
Despite this potential malignancy, our patient was treated successfully with enucleation only.
