Abstract
- Although several cases of bleeding have been reported in Sertoli-Leydig cell tumours, there is no report of a patient with Leydig cell tumour complaining of uterine bleeding (Table 1) in the literature. Discussion We encountered a case of Leydig cell tumour with a clinical presentation of postmenopausal uterine bleeding accompanied by polycythaemia and virilisation. Leydig cell tumours are a rare subgroup of steroid cell tumours, accounting for approximately 0.1% of all ovarian tumours. [Extracted from the article]
