Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors (SLCTs) are rare sex cord-stromal tumors, representing <0.5% of all ovarian tumors. We sought to describe prognostic factors, treatment and outcomes for individuals with ovarian SLCT. METHODS Individuals with SLCT were enrolled in the International Pleuropulmonary Blastoma/DICER1 Registry and/or the International Ovarian and Testicular Stromal Tumor Registry. Medical records were systematically abstracted, and pathology was centrally reviewed when available. RESULTS In total, 191 participants with ovarian SLCT enrolled, with most (92%, 175/191) presenting with FIGO stage I disease. Germline DICER1 results were available for 156 patients; of these 58% had a pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variant. Somatic (tumor) DICER1 testing showed RNase IIIb hotspot variants in 97% (88/91) of intermediately and poorly differentiated tumors. Adjuvant chemotherapy was administered in 40% (77/191) of cases, and among these, nearly all patients received platinum-based regimens (95%, 73/77), and 30% (23/77) received regimens that included an alkylating agent. Three-year recurrence-free survival for patients with stage IA tumors was 93.6% (95% CI: 88.2-99.3%) compared to 67.1% (95% CI: 55.2-81.6%) for all stage IC and 60.6% (95% CI: 40.3-91.0%) for stage II-IV (p < .001) tumors. Among patients with FIGO stage I tumors, those with mesenchymal heterologous elements treated with surgery alone were at higher risk for recurrence (HR: 74.18, 95% CI: 17.99-305.85). CONCLUSION Most individuals with SLCT fare well, though specific risk factors such as mesenchymal heterologous elements are associated with poor prognosis. We also highlight the role of DICER1 surveillance in early detection of SLCT, facilitating stage IA resection.

Abstract
DICER1 syndrome is a rare genetic disorder predisposing young patients to multiple types of cancer. A 17-year-old woman with a history of mixed Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor and juvenile granulosa cell tumor of the left ovary at age 14 presented with a pelvic mass. She underwent fertility preservation cytoreductive surgery and the pathology showed high-grade sarcoma with rhabdomyosarcomatous differentiation. After the surgery, patient received one cycle of chemotherapy but her disease continued to progress. She therefore underwent total hysterectomy, right salpingo-oophorectomy and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed no evidence of the disease before and after the completion of her chemotherapy. Genetic testing confirmed the DICER1 pathogenic variant. However, she presented again with a recurrence of the disease 6 months later and ultimately died of the disease 11 months after the surgery. Our case demonstrates the challenging management of this rare disease in a young patient and the need for new and effective treatments.

Abstract
Many sarcomas with DICER1 pathogenic variants (PVs) exhibit a characteristic morphology, including a subepithelial layer of malignant mesenchymal cells, areas of rhabdomyoblastic differentiation and cartilaginous and/ or osseous elements. We report 5 DICER1-associated neoplasms (1 moderately to poorly differentiated Sertoli Leydig cell tumour and 4 sarcomas) containing variable amounts of neuroectodermal elements. The neoplasms predominantly involved or were in close proximity to the female genital tract (ovary, uterine corpus, abdominal and pelvic cavity) and occurred in females aged 14 months to 54 years. The neuroectodermal elements were characterised by solid and tubular/ rosette-like patterns and variable immunoreactivity with SALL4 and neuroendocrine markers. In some cases, the neuroectodermal component was focal while in others it was exclusive. In one case, the focal neuroectodermal component within an ovarian Sertoli Leydig cell tumour resulted in extraovarian metastasis. In reporting these cases, we suggest that neuroectodermal elements, including pure neuroectodermal tumours, are part of the morphological spectrum of DICER1-associated neoplasms. It is important that pathologists recognize that a neuroectodermal component (often admixed with other elements) may be a feature of such neoplasms. This will facilitate appropriate tumour and/ or germline testing which could lead to the identification of germline DICER1 PVs (DICER1 syndrome). Three of the patients we report were subsequently shown to have a germline DICER1 PV.
