Popis: We report a case of a 38-year-old patient presenting with both pancreatic and a bilateral ovarian tumor revealed by a virilization syndrome. Clinically, both tumors were conceivably distinct. However, on histological examination, they were found to be morphologically similar, with neuroendocrine features, suggesting that pancreatic tumor was a primitive neoplasm and the ovarian one a metastatic spread of that lesion. The virilization syndrome was due to the functional status of the ovarian tumors that was confirmed by immunohistochemical detection of inhibin.
