Juvenile granulosa cell tumour is an uncommon ovarian tumour in the sex cord stromal tumours group.
General
- May secrete estrogen.
- May present with endometrial pathology, e.g. endometrial hyperplasia or endometrioid endometrial carcinoma.
- May present as precocious puberty.[1]
- Reported in males.[2]
- Uncommon.[3]
Gross
- Classically solid.
Microscopic
Features:
- Microcystic spaces.
- Moderate-to-marked nuclear atypia.
- Cuboidal-to-polygonal cell in sheets or stands or cords.
- Basophilic cytoplasm.
Notes:
- Juvenile variant of GCT has more nuclear pleomorphism.
DDx:
