A Case Report on Adult Granulosa Cell Tumour of the Ovary with Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia: A Diagnostic & Management Conundrum
Abstract
Adult granulosa cell tumours of the ovary are rare malignancies with good prognoses and a tendency for late recurrences. Manifestations of unopposed estrogen are common with various degrees of endometrial hyperplasia. Surgery remains the mainstay of treatment and the effectiveness of adjuvant therapy still remains to be seen. The usefulness of tumour markers for follow-up is yet to be proven but prolonged surveillance is mandatory as recurrences occur years following initial surgery.
