Résumé
Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor (SLCT) is a rare tumor of the ovary.Cushing's syndrome (CS), on the other hand, is a clinical picture formed by the long-term high levels of glucocorticoids in the blood for any reason and the resulting symptoms. Exceptionally in some of cases, a tumor far from the adrenal region synthesizes adrenocortical hormones. Among such ectopic neoplasms, CS Tumors of the ovary that secrete cortisol as a cause of the disease is an exceptional case. In other words, in this case, we argue that the tumor in the ovary causes Cushing's syndrome by secreting cortisol and ACTH-like peptides. There are 5 cases reported in the literature. In this case report we present a case in which SCLT of the ovary was detected by histopathological examination in a patient who underwent laparoscopic surgery due to Cushing's syndrome and bilateral adnexal mass.
