Abstract
Plasma gonadotropin, testosterone, androstenedione, and estradiol levels were determined before and after removal of a 37-pound gynandroblastoma from an 18-year-old virilized, mentally retarded female. Testosterone and androstenedione levels preoperatively were in the normal female range and fell dramatically after castration. Histologic examination showed active atypical granulosa and Sertoli elements. The hormonal data obtained do not account for the marked virilization observed.Entities:
