Granulosa cell tumors of the ovary are rare, and account for 2 to 3% of ovarian tumors. Granulosa cell tumors are discovered often in perimenopausal or postmenopausal women but 10 to 26% are found in the reproductive age group. The tumors associated with pregnancy are infrequent. In this study, we present a case of granulosa cell tumor of left ovary at pregnancy.

Testicular granulosa cell tumor(GCT) is a rare neoplasm. We report here on an incidentally discovered testicular granulosa cell tumor in a 36-year-old man. The serum tumor markers were within the normal limits. The ultrasonographic findings revealed a mass with a heterogenous hypoechoic echotexture, including multiple variable sized cystic components. The histology on the orchiectomy specimen demonstrated a gonadal stromal tumor with granulosa cell features. Testicular granulosa cell tumor of the adult type is a very rare tumor, and there have been several isolated case reports and small serial studies described in the literature.

Granulosa cell tumors are rare in children, and less than 5% of all cases occur before puberty. In premenarcheal girls, the juvenile type of this tumor usually elicits the signs of sexual precocity. We have recently experienced a case of juvenile granulosa cell tumor of the ovary presented with sexual precocity. It is different from the adult granulosa cell tumor with regard to clinical and pathological features as well as biological behaviour as previously described by Scully. Only the clinical stage at the time of diagnosis is considered to be related to the prognosis. About 90% are diagnosed in early stage with a favorable prognosis. More advanced stage have a poor clinical outcome.

Ovarian granulosa cell tumor is a uncommon low-grade feminizing malignancy. Its natural history shows slow growth without pain. It often reveals to be very large sized mass when diagnosed, and is confined to the involved ovary in many cases. Complete surgical removal is primary treatment and recurrences thereafter are relatively common. Postoperative adjuvant therapy including reoperation, chemotherapy, radiation therapy or a combination therapy has been used with various degrees of success. We experienced a case of huge ovarian granulosa cell tumor occupying whole abdominal cavity by rapid growth, which is presented with a brief review of corresponding literatures.

Unilocular cystic granulosa cell tumors (UCG) are extremely rare. Due to the relatively small mass of the tumor available for histologic examination, diagnosis of UCG is not easy. Here we present a case of UCG in a 54-year old female. A 12x10 cm unilocular cystic mass was identified in the right ovary. The tumor was thin-walled and consisted of a single large cavity with a smooth internal surface. In most areas there were no cells lining the cyst, however, in focal areas the unilocular cyst was lined by one or more layers of uniform granulosa cells, forming Call-Exner bodies. A diagnosis of UCG was made after multiple sections were examined. A careful histologic examination is required for the correct diagnosis of UCG.
