      This article examines unusual and recently described neoplasms such as variants of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors, monodermal teratomas, and small cell carcinoma, both the hypercalcemic and pulmonic types. Additionally, clues to assist in differentiating metastatic from primary tumors of the ovary are discussed.
