Ovarian tumors granulosa cell

Tumors derived from the sex cords or ovarian mesenchyme compose 5% to 12% of all ovarian neo-plasms. 413 Benign tumors in the fibroma-thecoma group are relatively common. Other sex cord-stromal tumors and mesenchymal tumors are rare. The most common malignant sex cord- stromal tumor is granulosa cell tumor, which composes 1% of 2% of all malignant ovarian tumors. There are two types of granulosa cell tumors an adult type that occurs mainly in postmenopausal... [Pg.730]

In a study of human ovarian tumors, McKay et al. (1949) found the quantity of histochemically reactive lipids to be directly related to the functional activity of these tumors. Moreover, in tumors with estrogenic activity the reactive lipids were confined to thecal cells, in either granulosa cell tumors or thecomas. In tumors with progestational activity, the lipids were in the lutein cells.

Differential diagnosis includes solid ovarian tumors in younger age, e.g., granulosa cell tumors and teratomas. In MRI, uterine fibroma and fibrothecoma may display a similar appearance on T2-weighted images however, contrast enhancement in these tumors is less and delayed. Especially in CT, differentiation of subserosal uterine fibroids from solid dysgerminomas is not possible. [Pg.255]

Sex cord stromal tumors derive from coelomic epithelium or mesenchymal cells of the embryonic gonads [54], Eight percent of all ovarian neoplasms account for this tumor type, with granulosa cell tumors, fibrothecomas, and Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors comprising the majority of these tumors. In contrast... [Pg.256]

The adult granulosa cell tumors usually occur after the age of 30 years and have their peak incidence in the perimenopausal age [54]. Because of their estrogen activity, they can become clinically apparent with abnormal uterine bleeding and endometrial hyperplasia. Endometrial cancer is associated with these tumors in 5%-25% of cases [58]. Both types of granulosa cell tumors are typical unilateral ovarian tumors that vary considerably in size and show an average diameter of approximately 12 cm [54]. [Pg.257]

Either benign or malignant ovarian tumors may be associated with virilization. Virilization has been observed in patients with adrenal rest tumors, Leydig cell tumors, granulosa cell tumors, Brenner tumors, and arrhenoblastomas. In patients with hirsutism associated with amenorrhea and sterility, the androstene-... [Pg.494]
