TLDR A rare ovarian tumor was successfully treated with surgery and chemotherapy.
This case report discusses a rare instance of a retiform Sertoli-Leydig cell tumour (SLCT) in a 24-year-old female, presenting with abdominal distension. SLCTs are uncommon, comprising less than 0.2% of ovarian tumours. The patient, with no prior health issues, was diagnosed with a stage IIIC SLCT following surgery for a solid-cystic abdominal mass. The treatment plan included oocyte cryopreservation and adjuvant chemotherapy. The report highlights the challenges in managing SLCT with a retiform pattern due to its rarity and calls for further studies to improve treatment strategies.
