J Clin Res Pediatr Endocrinol

Stony Brook University, Renaissance Faculty of Medicine, Department of Surgery, Division of Pediatric Surgery, New York, USA

Predominantly androgen secreting juvenile granulosa cell tumors (JGCT) are uncommon and few reports have been published. We present a case of a JGCT that presented with signs of prepubertal hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance to highlight the possible interaction between hyperandrogenemia and hyperinsulinism. A 4-year-old girl presented with acanthosis nigricans and hyperinsulinism, mimicking the hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance and acanthosis nigricans syndrome at an age much younger than is typical for this diagnosis.
