Sex cord tumor with annular tubules (SCTATs) is a rare sex cord stromal tumor in the ovary. SCTAT combined with adult granulosa cell tumor (AGCT) is even rarer. Here, we report a unique case of ovarian tumors with mixed AGCT and SCTAT components. Due to the unusual coexistence, molecular testing was separately performed on each ovary. Both SCTAT and AGCT components were found to have STK11 germline mutation. Furthermore, the AGCT component had an additional FOXL2 somatic mutation. Based on medical history and molecular testing we conclude that the ovarian tumors were associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS). Thus, we present the first report of bilateral PJS-associated SCTAT combined with unilateral AGCT.
