Sex Cord Tumor with Annular Tubules (SCTAT) is a rare ovarian tumor. It has morphological features intermediate between that of granulosa cell and sertoli cell. It is considered an estrogen and progesterone secreting tumor carrying low malignant potential. Due to its rare occurrence, its clinical recognition is difficult; hence, there are no standard treatment protocols. We present an incidentally detected SCTAT in the ovary coexisting with cervical fibroid.
