OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the different presentations of hyperandrogenism produced by ovarian tumors in women at different life stages
DESIGN: case report.
SETTING: academic institutions.
PATIENT(S): 3 patients at different life stages, with increased androgen levels.
INTERVENTION(S): review of hospital records.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): clinical and biochemical features, treatment and follow-up.
RESULT(S): a 10 year-old girl with Leydig cell tumor presented with hyperandrogenemia, virilization and changes in social behavior. Another patient, at reproductive age, with a tumor>10 cm, presented with signs of virilization and abdominal mass, whose pathologic analysis disclosed a carcinoid tumor of the ovary associated with stromal hyperplasia. The third patient was a postmenopausal woman with severe alopecia, who presented a steroid cell tumor, rare at that age.
CONCLUSION(S): the evaluation of women with signs and symptoms of virilization should include a detailed clinical record, thorough physical examination and an appropriate hormonal dosage, especially when images are inconclusive.
