Abstract
Virilizing features in a six-year-old, spayed female, domestic shorthair cat resolved following surgical removal of a mass at the left ovarian stump. Serum testosterone concentration before surgery was elevated. Clinical signs resolved and testosterone concentration normalized after removal of the tumor. A testosterone-producing thecoma was found on histopathology. This report presents the case report and literature review of thecomas.
