Abstract
Extraovarian adult granulosa cell tumor is a very uncommon neoplasm, which probably arises from the ectopic gonadal tissue along the embryonic root of the genital ridge. We report a new and rare case of an extraovarian adult granulosa cell tumor occurring in a 66-year-old woman who was presented with severe abdominal pain focused on the left iliac fossa. The immunohistopathology confirmed the diagnosis of a paratubal adult granulosa cell tumor. This paper illustrates the histogenetic origin of granulosa cell tumor, its clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features.
期刊介绍:
This online-only journal publishes original case reports on all types of cancer. In particular, we welcome not only case reports of educational value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, but also reports on molecularly analyzed cancer cases, including gene mutations, gene fusions, gene expression, and changes in copy number, regardless of their known clinical significance. Assessing the molecular analysis of a tumor usually requires a “cancer conference” in which experts from various fields discuss it. Even if the authors and their respective “cancer conference” were unable to determine the clinical significance of molecular changes at the time of submission and publication, their data may provide evidence that will help the scientific community develop precision medicine solutions in the future. We welcome case reports with reviews of the literature on similar cases, as they are more useful and valuable to readers than are reports of rare cases. International Cancer Conference Journal is the official publication of the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology (JSCO).
