Abstract
Distinctive ovarian and cervical tumors are associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS). The most common gynecological tumors in this syndrome are adenoma malignum of the uterine cervix and ovarian sex cord tumor, particularly sex cord tumor with annular tubules (SCTAT). Other kinds of ovarian tumors have been rarely reported in association of PJS, including Sertoli cell tumors. We report a case of a 4.5-year-old girl with PJS who presented with isosexual precocious puberty (IPP) due to ovarian lipid-rich Sertoli cell tumor. In addition to estrinizing effect of the tumor, the patient had decidual reaction secondary to tumor-derived progesterone secretion. The literature on gonadal tumors in PJS is reviewed, including one previous report of ovarian lipid-rich Sertoli cell tumor associated with this syndrome.
