ABSTRACT
Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors belong to the group of sex-cord stromal tumors of the ovary. They account for less than 0.5% of all ovarian tumor. They occur predominantly at premenopausal women and rarely at postmenopausal and prepubertal. Most common symptom is menstrual disorder including vaginal bleeding. This symptom is the results of excessive testosterone production of Leydig cell. Masculinization is occasionally accompanied by this symptom. but approximately 50% of patients with SLCT have no endocrine manifestations. Prognosis prove generally favorable with 5-year survival rate of 70-90%. Recurrence is rare.The majority of these tumors are benign and are unilaterally (97-98%) localized. Surgery varies with patient age, tumor stage, and differentiation from unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy to bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and total hysterectomy concomitant with pelvic lymph node dissection. Herewith, we experienced a case of treatment advanced-stage Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with poorly differentiation in that is ascitic and metastatic in a 53 years old menopause woman who has no virilizing symptom. After all the tumor has resulted in fatal outcome despite of surgery and aggressive chemotherapy. Therefore we present it with review of literature.

Extramammary Pagets disease(EMPD) of the vulva is an uncommon neoplasm which accounting for 2.5% of all vulvar malignancies and 0.02% of all female cancer. Several hundred cases have been reported worldwide since the first description by sir James Paget in 1874, It generally affects postrnenopausal age poup and presents high rate of recurrence but the precise incidence remines unclear, Although Paget's disease of the breast and the vulva are histologically similar, their histogenesis and biological behavior are considered to be significantly different and EMPD has gcnerally perceived rnore benign compared to that of the breast. Four histologic forms of vulvar EMPD have been recognized and treated vulvar EMPD in according to the 4 histologic classification. The high rate of recurtence disease remains a challenge for optimal management. Recently we experienced a case of Paget's disease of the vulva, diagnosed as an intraepithelial Pagets disease preoperatively and underwent radical vulvectomy and superiomedial thigh(SMT) flap, and present with a brief review of literature.
