Gynecological Endocrinology, 05/29/09
Buhler-Christen A et al. - The authors report on a 73-year old women with androgenic alopecia and hirsutism of recent onset because of elevated testosterone levels. Radiologic imaging showed no tumours of the adrenal glands and ovaries. Careful re-evaluation revealed increased ovarian size in relation to age. Bilateral ovarectomy confirmed the diagnosis of ovarian hyerthecosis and led to improvement of clinical findings. It is important to review imaging findings as OH may elude imaging studies. OH should be included in the differential diagnosis of postmenopausal hyperadnrogenism particularly if androgen excess is of recent-onset.
