This case study reports that a virilizing Leydig cell type ovarian tumor in a 40-year-old woman caused hyperandrogenism and virilization symptoms, which improved post-surgery.

This study describes the case of a Filipino woman with virilisation, where a rare ovarian Leydig cell tumour was identified and removed, normalizing her testosterone levels.

In this case study, a 69-year-old woman with signs of virilization and high testosterone levels was found to have an ovarian steroid cell tumor, highlighting the importance of systematically investigating such symptoms in postmenopausal women to determine the underlying etiology and prevent poor prognosis.

In this case study, researchers identified a Leydig cell tumor in a 56-year-old postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms by using ovarian vein sampling, as imaging was nonrevealing, and confirmed the tumor's location using testosterone ratios, which supported previous findings.
