Zusammenfassung:	The first case of ovarian sclerosing stromal tumor associated with endometrial adenocarcinoma in a 44-year-old woman is presented. By ultrastructural study, typical steroidsecreting type theca cells and various transitional tumor cells from fibroblast-like cells to theca-like cells were observed in the ovarian tumor. The clinical history of the patient and the ultrastructural study of this tumor suggested hormonal activity, but no apparent evidence of active hormone secretion was detected by plasma analysis for steroid hormones.
