Özet
Granulosa cell tumors (GCTs) constitute 70% of all sex-cord stromal tumors of the ovary and 1-2% of all ovarian cancers. A 19-year-old gravida 1, para 1 woman was admitted to our institution with abdominal distension. No ovarian mass had been detected during routine ultrasonographic examinations in our institution throughout her pregnancy, and one year had passed since her delivery by cesarean section. On admission, a painless ovarian mass was detected in the left ovary measuring 7x7x5 cm. Left salpingo-oophorectomy was performed during staging surgery. The case was stage-IIIB according to the FIGO staging system. Pathological examination revealed the diagnosis of juvenile GCT. We report this rare case with the aim of pointing out the possibility of unexpected aggressive behavior of juvenile GCT of the ovary over an approximately one-year period.
