[Recurrences of ovarian granulosa cell tumors]. 1978

M A Sapozhnikova, and V S Tebenikhin

Investigations of two cases of relapses of granulocellular tumors of the ovaries established their characteristics: cyst formation in nodes of the tumor growing on the peritoneum, formation of Call-Exner strucutres characteristic of the ovary tissue in tumors, and growth of the tumor on serous integument without ingrowing into the parenchyma of the abdominal cavity organs. The similarity of the observed characteristics of peritoneal tumor with typical signs of the ovary tumors suggests that mesothelium retains some properties common to those of the ovary tissue and acquired in embryogenesis.

D010051	Ovarian Neoplasms	Tumors or cancer of the OVARY. These neoplasms can be benign or malignant. They are classified according to the tissue of origin, such as the surface EPITHELIUM, the stromal endocrine cells, and the totipotent GERM CELLS.

D006106	Granulosa Cell Tumor	A neoplasm composed entirely of GRANULOSA CELLS, occurring mostly in the OVARY. In the adult form, it may contain some THECA CELLS. This tumor often produces ESTRADIOL and INHIBIN. The excess estrogen exposure can lead to other malignancies in women and PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY in girls. In rare cases, granulosa cell tumors have been identified in the TESTES.
