ABSTRACT
Ovarian granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) are rare neoplasms with a unique incidence pattern peaking in postmenopausal women. This case report presents two instances of stage 4 recurrent adult GCTs with a prolonged 20-year follow-up. Patient 1, diagnosed at 54 years, experienced multiple recurrences managed through surgery, hormonal therapy, and chemotherapy, culminating in hepatocellular carcinoma. Patient 2, diagnosed at 67 years, underwent various treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and hormonal therapy, demonstrating disease stability. Despite the generally favorable prognosis, these cases highlight the challenges of managing recurrent GCTs, emphasizing the need for tailored therapeutic approaches.
