Abstract
Background
Sclerosing stromal tumor is an extremely rare type of benign ovarian sex cord stromal
tumor.
Case
The benign characteristic of this tumor is well known but we present an uncommon case
of paraovarian sclerosing stromal tumor with high mitotic activity.
Results and Conclusion
Despite this potential malignancy, our patient was treated successfully with enucleation
only.
