Severe virilization in a girl with a steroid cell tumor of the ovary.

We report a 6-year-old girl with striking signs of virilization, as well as elevated concentrations of testosterone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone. Although the elevated 17-hydroxyprogesterone concentration initially suggested late-onset 21-hydroxylase deficiency, she was found to have an ovarian mass by sonography which at surgery proved to be a hilus cell subtype of steroid cell tumor. This intra-ovarian tumor appears to be the smallest tumor of its type ever reported. The testosterone concentration was normal three days after tumor resection and has remained so two years later.

The approach to large left ventricular aneurysms. A report of three difficult cases.

We report the management and evaluation of three difficult left ventricular aneurysms from a series of 246 cases treated between 1970 and 1985. These three cases reflect our present approach to left ventricular aneurysms after previous aortocoronary bypass (case 1), aneurysms with distorted ventricular geometry and severe mitral regurgitation (case 2), and large, minimally symptomatic left ventricular aneurysms (case 3). All three cases had very little or no coronary artery disease, and the main purpose of surgery in them was primarily to correct ventricular pathology.
