    Journal: J Pediatr Adolesc Gynecol; 2007 Aug; 20(4):257-9. PubMed ID: 17673140.
    Abstract:
    STUDY OBJECTIVE: To document an unusual presentation of a pure Sertoli Cell tumor. DESIGN: Case report. RESULTS: We present a 10-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and diarrhea with no symptoms of puberty. Surgical exploration revealed a metastatic pure Sertoli Cell tumor, which was treated with resection and chemotherapy. CONCLUSION: Sertoli cell tumors are rare occurrences and should be considered in the differential diagnosis for a prepubescent girl with an abdominal mass.
