Granulosa-theca cell tumour of the ovaries. A late metastasizing tumour.

H W Spencer1, A M Mullings, G Char, R Carpenter.   

Abstract

Granulosa-theca cell tumours are ovarian neoplasms of low malignancy with hormone secreting potential, accounting for 2-3% of all ovarian cancers. They have an uncertain clinical course and a potential for late recurrence after surgical removal. Clinical features of a patient presenting with pulmonary metastases 21 years after removal of the primary tumour are described, along with a review of the management options.
