Adult granulosa cell tumor of ovary in a young female: A rare case report (original) (raw)
Indian Journal of Pathology and Oncology
Granulosa cell tumours (GCT) belong to the group of sex cord and stromal tumours of ovary. Adult granulosa cell tumours account for approximately 1% of all ovarian tumours and 95% of all granulosa cell tumours. They are found more often in postmenopausal than premenopausal women, with a peak incidence between 50 and 55 years of age. We present the case of a 35-year female who came with white discharge, irregular menses and excessive bleeding during menses since 5 to 6 months. The complete blood picture with peripheral smear examination, kidney and liver function tests were all within normal limits. CT abdomen was advised which revealed a large solid cystic lesion of left ovarian origin. Surgical intervention was done and histopathology revealed adult granulosa cell tumor of ovary.
