Leydig cell tumor is a rare benign tumor which belongs to the category of sex cord stromal tumors of ovary. Leydig cell tumor usually presents with androgenizing features like hirsutism, deepening of voice, or clitoromegaly and are often suspected only if such symptoms are present. Leydig cell tumors can however be estrogenizing or non-functional. We report an incidental finding of Leydig cell tumor in a patient who underwent hysterectomy for postmenopausal bleeding.
