The symptoms of SLCTs in pediatric patients can vary depending on the tumor's size, location, and hormone production. Common symptoms include:
- Abdominal Pain or Mass: A palpable abdominal mass or pain is often the first sign. - Hormonal Changes: Due to testosterone production by the tumor, patients may exhibit signs of virilization, such as facial hair growth, deepening of the voice, and clitoromegaly. - Menstrual Irregularities: Pubertal girls may experience irregular menstrual cycles or amenorrhea.
