Abstract:
5% of ovarian neoplasms consist of granulosa cell tumors. 10% of cases coexist with pregnancy2. We report on delivery of normal infant in young woman with granulosa cell tumor diagnosed and treated during pregnancy. At laparotomy a large right ovarian granulosa cell tumor was found and right salpingo- oophorectomy was performed. A normal infant was delivered by cesarean section at full term.
