Paediatric Virilizing Ovarian Tumors: A Systematic Review
Hyperandrogenic manifestations are less frequent in children < 8 years with VOT. Elevated 17-OHP and/or DHEAS should not exclude the possibility of VOT. Etiological spectrum of paediatric VOT is relatively age-specific. Larger multicenter studies with longer follow-up are warranted to better delineate prognosis and management strategies.
