Abstract
Steroid cell tumour (SCT) of the ovary is a rare sex cord stromal tumour that accounts for approximately 0.1% of all ovarian neoplasms.1 This category includes steroid cell tumour-not otherwise specified (SCT-NOS) and Leydig cell tumours (LCT), with SCT-NOS being the most prevalent. However, unlike LCT which is considered benign, SCT-NOS has a malignant potential with local recurrence, metastasis within the peritoneal cavity and distant sites in about one third of the cases.1,2 Here, we present two cases of SCT-NOS in 31 and 44 years old women presenting with hirsutism and amenorrhoea respectively.
