Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-000574

A rare type of sex cord-stromal tumor that primarily affects the gonads, most commonly the ovary, but can also occur in the testis. These tumors are characterized by the presence of cells resembling Sertoli cells and Leydig cells, which can produce androgens. They are also known as Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors.
