Abstract
Although majority of sex cord-stromal tumor is benign, some granulosa cell tumor and Sertoli-Leydig tumors show malignant behavior. Stage is the most important prognostic factor. The recurrent sex cord-stromal tumors are usually peritoneal seeding or retroperitoneal nodule, occasionally containing intratumoral hemorrhage.
