Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary: a series of 6 cases.

Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is a rare ovarian malignancy that represents only 2-3% of all cases. There are two subtypes of GCT: juvenile/JGCT (5% of cases) and adult/AGCT (95% of cases). This study aimed to describe a series of 6 GCT cases. The 6 study patients were managed from June 2011 to November 2022 in a private oncology clinic located in Teresina (PI), Brazil. At diagnosis, the mean patient age was 47 years, and symptoms in 5 patients (83%) were pelvic pain and/or increased abdominal volume. The majority of the patients (N=4/67%) had no comorbidities or findings related to GCT on physical examination. The mean tumor size was 11 cm. Five (83%) tumors were stage Ia and one tumor (17%) was stage III. Regarding tumor subtype, 5 (83%) were AGCT and 1 (17%) was JGCT. Surgical treatment consisted of unilateral salpingo-ophorectomy in 2 patients (33%), total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-ophorectomy in 3 patients (50%), and cytoreduction (suboptimal) in 1 patient (17%). After a mean follow-up period of 62.7 months, 5 patients (83%) are still alive and free of disease. One (17%) died from disease progression after 126 months. In the current study, disease-free overall survival was 83%, in a mean follow-up period of 62.7 months.

Defining the relationship between ovarian adult granulosa cell tumors and synchronous endometrial pathology: Does ovarian tumor size correlate with endometrial cancer?

OBJECTIVE: The main feature of adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCT) is their capacity to secrete hormones, with nearly all of them capable of synthesizing oestradiol. The primary goal of this study is to identify synchronized endometrial pathologies, particularly endometrial cancer, in AGCT patients who had undergone a hysterectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study cohort comprised retrospectively of 316 AGCT patients from 10 tertiary gynecological oncology centers. AGCT surgery consisted of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, hysterectomy, peritoneal cytology, omentectomy, and the excision of any suspicious lesion. The median tumor size value was used to define the relationship between tumor size and endometrial cancer. The relationship between each value and endometrial cancer was evaluated. RESULTS: Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia, or hyperplasia with complex atypia, was detected in 7.3% of patients, and endometrial cancer in 3.1% of patients. Age, menopausal status, tumor size, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage, ascites, and CA-125 level were not statistically significant factors to predict endometrial cancer. There was no endometrial cancer under the age of 40, and 97.8% of women diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia were over the age of 40. During the menopausal period, the endometrial cancer risk was 4.5%. Developing endometrial cancer increased to 12.1% from 3.2% when the size of the tumor was >150 mm in menopausal patients (p = 0.036). CONCLUSION: Endometrial hyperplasia, or cancer, occurs in approximately 30% of AGCT patients. Patients diagnosed with AGCT, especially those older than 40 years, should be evaluated for endometrial pathologies. There may be a relationship between tumor size and endometrial cancer, especially in menopausal patients.

Adult-type granulosa cell tumor associated with elevated luteinizing hormone: Two rare case reports.

INTRODUCTION: Adult-type granulosa cell tumors (AGCTs), which account for 2% to 5% of all malignant ovarian tumors, are rare sex cord-stromal tumors that usually secrete excess estrogens, but they can also secrete androgens. PATIENT CONCERNS: We report 2 patients of childbearing age with AGCT who presented with the complaint of abnormal menstruation and elevated luteinizing hormone (LH), and mildly elevated testosterone. DIAGNOSIS: The ovarian tumors had hormonal activity. INTERVENTIONS: The 2 patients underwent laparoscopic left adnexectomy. The second patient underwent 4 cycles of chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin as adjuvant treatments. OUTCOMES: Their postoperative pathology confirmed AGCTs. Also, their menstrual cycle returned to normal, with normal serum LH and testosterone levels. There was no sign of recurrence. CONCLUSION: The cases suggest that elevated serum LH levels may be a sign of unknown tumors in cases of oligomenorrhea or secondary amenorrhea. It is useful to evaluate the serum levels of inhibin B and anti-Müllerian hormone to improve the early recognition of ovarian granulosa cell tumors.

[Five case reports on granulosa cell tumors in cattle with practical information on diagnosis and possible progression]. / Fünf Fallberichte zum Granulosazelltumor beim Rind mit praktischen Hinweisen zur Diagnostik und zum möglichen Verlauf.

INTRODUCTION: Five cases of ovarian tumors (granulosa cell tumors) in cattle are presented from the patient load of the Vetsuisse University of Zurich and Bern. The aim of this work was to demonstrate the variable development of the illness and to indicate diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities to the practicing veterinarians. Case 1 shows bilateral appearance and the development of malignancy and metastases. The main symptoms in case 2 were the development of the mammary gland in a juvenile animal and the behavior modification due to a hormonal imbalance. The cases 3, 4 and 5 underwent surgery, case 4 restarted reproductive activity resulting in five subsequent pregnancies. The initial presumption is a result of a gynecological including ultrasonographic examination and can be verified by the analysis of Müllerian Inhibiting Hormone in serum. The decision to perform surgery should be done rapidly, as normal fertility can be achieved if the tumor is located unilaterally. Tumor growth and potential malignancy can provoke fatal health issues and also make it impossible to use meat of these animals for consumption.

INTRODUCTION: Cinq cas de tumeurs ovariennes (tumeurs des cellules de la granulosa) chez les bovins sont présentés à partir de la patientèle de l'Université Vetsuisse de Zurich et de Berne. Le but de ce travail était de montrer l'évolution variable de la maladie et d'indiquer les possibilités diagnostiques et thérapeutiques aux vétérinaires praticiens. Le cas 1 montre la possibilité d'une apparition bilatérale avec développement d'une tumeur maligne et de métastases. Les principaux symptômes du cas 2 étaient le développement de la glande mammaire chez un animal juvénile et la modification du comportement due à un déséquilibre hormonal. Les cas 3, 4 et 5 ont subi une intervention chirurgicale, le cas 4 a repris une activité de reproduction avec cinq gestations ultérieures. La présomption initiale résulte d'un examen gynécologique et peut être vérifiée par l'analyse de l'hormone anti-müllérienne dans le sérum. La décision d'opérer doit être prise rapidement, car une intervention chirurgicale pour enlever l'ovaire atteint peut, dans l'idéal, permettre une reprise de l'activité de reproduction. La croissance de la tumeur et la malignité potentielle peuvent provoquer des problèmes de santé fatals et rendre la viande de ces animaux impropre à la consommation.

Effectiveness of adjuvant systemic therapy following complete cytoreductive surgery in patients with recurrent granulosa cell tumours of the ovary.

Aim of the present analysis is to compare the impact of antihormonal therapy versus cytotoxic chemotherapy versus a watch a wait approach on disease-free survival (DFS) in the adjuvant setting of patients who underwent complete cytoreductive surgery(CRS) for recurrent adult type granulosa cell tumours of the ovary (GCT). Moreover, we wished to identify prognostic risk factors for recurrence. We included recurrent GCT-patients who underwent CRS resulting in total macroscopic tumour clearance, treated in two gynaecological cancer centres over a 20-year period (2000-2020). CRS was performed for 51 recurrences in 26 GCT-patients. Adjuvant systemic treatments were as follows: chemotherapy in 21 cases, hormonotherapy in 10 cases, no systemic treatment in 20 cases. There were no statistically significant differences in DFS between chemotherapy, hormonotherapy and no systemic treatment: median DFS was 57, 36 and 57 months, respectively (p = 0.616). Extra-pelvic and/or multifocal tumour dissemination were found to be independent predictive factors for subsequent recurrences. In the cases with both lower and upper abdominal involvement (n = 18), patients who received chemotherapy (n = 9) had longer DFS than those who had hormonotherapy (n = 2) or no adjuvant therapy (n = 7) at all: median DFS was 36, 13 and 15 months, respectively (p = 0.9). Our findings do not encourage the administration of adjuvant therapy following complete CRS for GCT-relapse. Selected high-risk patients with disseminated disease may derive clinical benefit from additional chemotherapy, larger-scale multicentre studies are warranted to define treatment algorithms for this rare disease.

Successful intra-abdominal resection of a 24 kg ovarian granulosa cell tumor in a Warmblood mare.

Background: Granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) are the most common ovarian tumors in mares. The classical presentation of a GCT is a unilaterally enlarged ovary appearing as a multicystic honeycomb mass. In rare cases, GCTs cause hemoperitoneum as a result of the rapid growth of the tumor. The clinical diagnosis of GCT is usually based on history, rectal examination, ultrasonographic examination, and serum hormone analysis, and surgical removal of the affected ovary is the treatment of choice. The different surgical approaches are based on the dimension of the GCT. Case Description: A 7-year-old mare was referred to the department for horses due to suspicion of a large colon impaction. The mare presented with clinical signs of colic, fever, and signs of hypovolemic shock. Rectal and ultrasonographic examination showed hemoperitoneum and a honey-comb mass within the abdomen, and a GCT as the cause of an acute hemoperitoneum was diagnosed based on the serum level of anti-Müllerian hormone. After stabilization of the mare, the GCT was removed through a ventral midline incision. Because of the enormous dimensions of the GCT, intra-abdominal partial resection of the tumor using a tenotomy knife was necessary to exteriorize the ovarian pedicle. At 3 months follow-up, the mare was ridden for her intended use. Conclusion: This report provides an approach to an uncommon case of a very large and heavy GCT.

Acute Large Ovarian Cyst After Surgical Resection of Juvenile Granulosa Cell Tumor Stage 1C.

Juvenile granulosa cell tumors (JGCTs) are rare, though carry significant burden of morbidity and mortality. A 15-year-old menstruating female with abdominal pain was diagnosed with a large 22.3 cm pelvic mass. CA-125 and LDH were elevated. Exploratory laparotomy was undertaken due to lesion size, and left salpingo-oophorectomy with omentectomy was completed. Pathology confirmed JGCTs with focal disruption, consistent with Stage IC disease. Six weeks postoperatively, the patient experienced recurrent abdominal pain and ultrasound revealed a 7.9 cm right ovarian cystic structure. Given size and nodularity, management was discussed with a multidisciplinary team. Serial ultrasounds demonstrated resolution of the cyst. Workup for ovarian masses in pediatric patients has added complexity of fertility preservation. Once ovarian torsion is ruled out, imaging and laboratory studies are completed to characterize the mass. In pediatric patients with cancer of the Mullerian structures and risk of infertility, decision-making can be challenging and is best managed with a multidisciplinary approach.

Metastatic juvenile granulosa cell tumor in abdominal wall.

Juvenile granulosa cell tumor (JGCT) is an uncommon ovarian tumor. There are only a few cases in the literature that depict the cytomorphology of JGCT at the primary/metastatic site. We described the fine-needle aspiration cytology of a recurrent metastatic JGCT of the anterior abdominal wall, 5 years post-surgery (total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy).

Adult granulosa cell tumor of the testis with malignant tendency: A case report with genetic analysis using high-throughput sequencing.

BACKGROUND: The adult granulosa cell tumor of the testis is a rare sex-cord/stromal tumor, with a potentiality for late recurrence and metastasis. Because of its rarity, this tumor is poorly understood, particularly in terms of its molecular features. As a result, it is necessary to register each occurrence in order to study the evolution of this rare malignancy and develop therapeutic strategies. METHODS: A 50-year-old man discovered a painless right testicular mass unexpectedly, and the mass steadily expanded for 2 months. Ultrasonography showed a 5.2 cm × 4.0 cm × 3.6 cm mass in the right testicle. A right radical orchiectomy was performed on September 7, 2016. The pathologic diagnosis was a testicular adult granulosa cell tumor. The post-computed tomography scans and bone scintigraphy ruled out distant metastases. A high-throughput sequencing of 520 cancer-related genes revealed FOXL2 C134W, CDKN2A E87Gfs*24, TP53 S183*, TERT c.-124C > T, and H3F3A K28R mutations in this case. Because the patient stated he would be unable to return to the hospital for a follow-up appointment on time, he elected to have 4 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy BEP (bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin) after the right radical orchiectomy. RESULTS: The patient has not had a clinical recurrence or metastasis in 6 years. CONCLUSION: Surgery together with adjuvant chemotherapy may be useful treatment options for these individuals with malignant tendencies who are unable to visit the hospital for a follow-up appointment on time. Adult testicular granulosa cell tumors have a relatively complex genetic profile; their etiology is linked to a number of common driver genes, including TERT, CDKN2A, TP53, and H3F3A.

An unusual coincidence of giant cervical leiomyoma and incidental ovarian granulosa cell tumor: A case report.

RATIONALE: Leiomyomas are the most common benign tumors of smooth muscle origin in women. They are most frequently found in the submucosal tissue of the uterine corpus; however, they also occur in other areas of the uterus, including the cervix. Their size usually varies between 0.5 to 1.0 cm; however, they can reach great dimensions. A strong correlation between the onset and growth of leiomyomas and estrogen levels was observed. Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is an infrequent sex cord-stromal ovarian neoplasm. Despite their malignancy, GCTs have a good long-term prognosis. In this study, we present a unique case of coincidence of 2 tumors: leiomyoma of rare location (cervix uteri) and extraordinary size (9, 04 cm diameter) with an adult granulosa cell tumor. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 67-year-old Caucasian woman was transported from an emergency ward to a gynecological surgery department due to a massive vaginal hemorrhage. DIAGNOSES: Preliminary examination showed a presence of an enormous uteri cervix tumor. INTERVENTIONS: Initially, the patient underwent physical and ultrasound examinations. To prevent further bleeding, an urgent surgery (hysterectomy) with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed. OUTCOME: Postoperative histopathological examination revealed a cervical leiomyoma and the incidental occurrence of an adult GCT in the right ovary. LESSONS: This case shares an interesting coincidence between a rare variant of leiomyoma and GCT. The study suggests that the potential reason for this can be estrogen secreted by the GCT, which causes the enormous size of the patient's cervical leiomyoma and the severe vaginal bleeding. Therefore, we advise it is important in abnormal cases to search for other hidden explanations, as in cases of GCT.

Mixed sex cord-stromal tumor (gynandroblastoma) with malignant morphology involving both ovaries: a case report.

Mixed sex cord-stromal tumors, which consist of poorly differentiated Sertoli cells and Leydig cells and juvenile granulosa cell tumor tissue, are extremely rare. Most of these tumors are unilateral and stage I at the time of diagnosis; nonetheless, according to the available relevant English-language literature, these tumors maintain a malignant potential. We herein report a case involving a 15-year-old girl diagnosed with a mixed sex cord-stromal tumor (gynandroblastoma with juvenile granulosa cell tumor component). Left salpingo-oophorectomy was initially performed, and the diagnosis of a juvenile granulosa cell tumor was established. Right salpingo-oophorectomy was performed 1 year later, at which time the specimen showed a different growth pattern involving epithelioid cells and tubules, resembling a Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor. Immunohistochemical staining was performed and the specimen was compared with that obtained 1 year earlier. We concluded that the tumors were linked and most likely constituted a gynandroblastoma (mixed form of sex cord-stromal tumor). Although this is an extremely uncommon ovarian tumor, it should be considered when diverse tumor morphology is identified. Bilateral metachronous involvement of the ovaries is possible. The grade of the Sertoli-Leydig cell component may influence the prognosis of such a tumor.

Clinicopathological analysis of patients with molecularly confirmed stage I adult granulosa cell tumors and prediction of recurrence.

OBJECTIVE: Adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCTs) are rare malignancies that accounts for approximately 1% of ovarian neoplasms. As there are currently no well-recognized models for predicting relapse-free survival (RFS), we performed a clinicopathological analysis to identify risk factors for AGCT recurrence. METHODS: We investigated 130 patients with pathologically diagnosed AGCT as confirmed by the presence of the characteristic FOXL2 C402G mutation. RESULTS: Most patients had International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage I disease (n = 122, 95.3%). The 10-year RFS rate was 31.4% (22/70) and mean 10-year RFS was 74.4 (95% CI, 65.2-83.7) months. Ten patients experienced recurrence beyond the 10-year follow-up period. Undergoing fertility sparing surgery, an estrogen receptor-α (ERα) score (>0.25), and a Ki-67 index >15% were independent risk factors for recurrence in patients with stage I disease (bias-corrected C-index: 0.776). We constructed a nomogram with well-fitting calibration plots; the areas under the curve (AUCs) for 5-, and 10-year RFS prediction were 0.883 and 0.906 respectively. A simplified model with 3 predictive factors (ERα score, Ki-67 index, and primary surgical procedure) and 2 risk stratification subgroups (low- and high-risk) was constructed; its AUCs for 5-, and 10-year RFS prediction were 0.825 and 0.850 respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed significant differences in 10-year RFS between the low- and high-risk groups (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The type of primary surgical procedure, ERα score, and Ki-67 index are independent predictors of recurrence for patients with stage I AGCT. Our predictive model based on these factors showed good performance.

Atypical Presentation of Granulosa Cell Tumor in an Adolescent: A Case Report.

BACKGROUND: Granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) frequently present with elevated levels of estrogen and inhibin. Most diagnoses in the pediatric and adolescent population are juvenile-type GCTs; adult-type GCTs in this population are rare. CASE: We describe a 14-year-old female who presented with a large adnexal mass and clinical hyperandrogenism. Laboratory evaluation revealed elevated levels of free and total testosterone, low-normal estradiol, and mildly elevated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). Other tumor markers, including inhibin, were within normal limits. Intraoperative assessment with unilateral oophorectomy, pathology, and imaging resulted in a diagnosis of a stage IA adult-type GCT. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION: GCTs often result in elevated estrogen and inhibin B levels; however, this case demonstrates that non-classic elevations in testosterone and normal inhibin levels should not eliminate concern for a GCT, particularly in the setting of a large ovarian mass.

Testosterone elevation in ovarian adult granulosa cell tumor: A case report and review of the literature.

RATIONALE: Adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCT) mainly secret estrogen, but few androgens. It is rarer to have amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia as clinical features. Here, we report a rare case of right side AGCTs with amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia in a 19-year-old female. PATIENT CONCERNS: The 19-year-old patient was admitted to our hospital due to amenorrhea for more than 1 year, and discovery of pelvic mass for 4 months. The gynecological ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) cannot define the nature of the mass. Surprisingly, an elevation in testosterone levels was also measured. DIAGNOSIS AND INTERVENTIONS: The present patient underwent laparoscopic right salpingo-oophorectomy and partial omentectomy and biopsy of the peritoneum. OUTCOMES: After the surgery, the testosterone value was down to normal. The patient menstrual cramps on August 13, 2021. Her clitoris is smaller than the front. Up to August 1, 2022, there was no obvious sign of recurrence. LESSONS: Androgen-secreting AGCT is rare. We hope that this case can strengthen gynecologists' early diagnosis and treatment of this disease and improve the prognosis.

Impact of surgery and chemotherapy in ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors from the multicentric Salomé study including 469 patients. A TMRG and GINECO group study.

OBJECTIVE: Identifying prognostic factors and evaluating the impact of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with sex cord stromal tumors (SCST) is crucial. In this study, we aimed to address these challenges. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of data from 13 centers of the French Rare malignant gynecological tumors (TMRG) network. We enrolled 469 adult patients with malignant SCST who received upfront surgery since 2011 to July 2015. RESULTS: 75% were diagnosed with adult Granulosa cell tumors, and 23% had another subtype. With a median follow-up of 6.4 years, 154 patients (33%) developed a first recurrence, 82 (17%) two recurrences, and 49 (10%) three recurrences. Adjuvant chemotherapy was administered in 14.7% of patients at initial diagnosis. In relapse, perioperative chemotherapy was administered in 58.5%, 28.2%, and 23.8% of patients, respectively, in the first, second, and third relapse. In the first-line therapy, age under 70 years, FIGO stage, and complete surgery were associated with longer progression-free survival (PFS). Chemotherapy had no impact on PFS in early-stage disease (FIGO I-II). The PFS was similar using BEP or other chemotherapy regimens (HR 0.88 [0.43; 1.81]) in the first-line therapy. In case of recurrence, PFS was statistically prolonged by complete surgery, but perioperative chemotherapy use did not impact PFS. CONCLUSION: Chemotherapy use did not impact survival in the first-line or relapse setting in SCST. Only surgery and its quality demonstrated benefit for PFS in ovarian SCST in any lines of treatment.

Clinical characteristics and oncological outcomes of recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor of ovary: A retrospective study of seventy patients.

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to describe the clinicopathological characteristics of recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor and identify the risk factors for recurrence. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Seventy recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor patients treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 2000 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival after first recurrence (PFS-R), overall survival after first recurrence (OS-R) and recurrence frequency. The Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis, and the Prentice, Williams and Peterson counting process (PWP-CP) model were adopted. RESULTS: There were 70 patients included in the study, and recurrence occurred twice in more than 71% of patients, and 49.9% of patients relapsed ≥ three times. The recurrence pattern in over half of the patients at first recurrence was multifocal and distant disease, and abdominal or pelvic mass and liver metastasis were the most common. The 5-year PFS-R was 29.3%, and the 10-year PFS-R was 11.3%; the 5-year OS-R was 94.9%, and the 10-year OS-R was 87.9%. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that patients with distant recurrence and PFS1 (PFS when first recurrence occurred) ≤60 months had worse PFS-R (p = 0.017, 0.018), and patients with PFS-R ≤ 34 months had worse OS-R (p = 0.023). It demonstrated that PFS1 ≤ 60 months (hazard ratio, HR 1.9, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.1-3.4, p = 0.028) was an independent risk factor for PFS-R, and local lesion at recurrence (HR 0.488, 95% CI: 0.3-0.9, p = 0.027) was an independent protective factor for PFS-R. In addition, it demonstrated that PFS-R ≤ 33 months (HR 5.5, 95% CI: 1.2-25.3, p = 0.028) was an independent risk factor for OS-R. The PWP-CP analysis showed that laparoscopic operation (at each operation) could significantly increase recurrence times (p = 0.002, HR = 3.4), and no existence of gross residual lesion (R0) at each recurrence operation could significantly decrease recurrence frequency (p < 0.001, HR <0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The recurrence pattern in patients with recurrent adult granulosa cell tumor was characterized as late and repeated, multifocal, and distant relapse. It has been demonstrated that PFS1 ≤ 60 months and distant lesion at recurrence are independent risk factors for PFS-R, and PFS-R ≤ 33 months is an independent risk factor for OS-R. The PWP-CP model showed that the transabdominal approach and surgery reaching R0 could significantly decrease the recurrence frequency.

AMH producing purely cystic virilizing adult granulosa cell tumor in 17 years old girl: a case report and review of literatures.

BACKGROUND: Androgen-producing granulosa cell tumor in adolescent girl is rare condition and clinical characteristics are not fully elucidated. CASE PRESENTATION: Seventeen years old girl complained of secondary amenorrhea was referred to our out-patient consultation. Markedly elevated serum testosterone, LH, and AMH levels were noted. Mild hirsutism and clitoromegaly were presented. Transabdominal ultrasonography and MRI revealed cystic mass occupied pelvic cavity probably originated from left ovary. Right ovary showed polycystic appearance. Laparoscopic left ovarian cystectomy was performed. After the surgery, her menstruation resumed along with normalized hormonal parameters, and clinical hyperandrogenism were improved. Since the scarcity of cellular lining of inner cyst wall, definitive pathological diagnosis was difficult. After the consultation with gynecological pathologist, the tumor was diagnosed as sex cord stromal tumor, highly suspicious for adult granulosa cell tumor. Residual left salpingo-oophorectomy was performed by additional laparoscopic surgery. Her serum testosterone and AMH levels were remained low with regular menstrual cycles and no evidence of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Androgen-producing cystic granulosa cell tumor is rare gynecological disorders, which need both gynecologic oncological and endocrinological approach. Its clinical manifestations may bring some clues to the pathogenesis of ovulatory dysfunctions, such as polycystic ovary syndrome.
