Origin of an Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor Causing Isosexual Pseudoprecocious Puberty Demonstrated by the Expression of Adrenal Steroidogenic Enzymes and Adrenocorticotropin Receptor

Ovarian steroid cell tumors are rare neoplasms composed of typical steroid hormone-secreting cells.

Nevertheless, the true adr...
