On examination she had signs of  virilisation and mass abdomen. Serum androgens and CA 125 level were high. USG abdomen and pelvis and CT scan abdomen and pelvis showed ovarian mass and a left adrenal mass. Staging laparotomy was performed . Bilateral ovarian masses and left adrenal mass was present.
