Late Cystic Metastasis of an Ovarian Granulosa Cell Tumor to the Liver

Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is a unique form of sex cord tumor that is mostly unilateral and of low-grade malignancy. Most GCT recurrence is with pelvic or peritoneal dissemination. Liver metastasis is rarely reported. This study reports a rare case of GCT with liver metastasis nine years post initia...

description Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) is a unique form of sex cord tumor that is mostly unilateral and of low-grade malignancy. Most GCT recurrence is with pelvic or peritoneal dissemination. Liver metastasis is rarely reported. This study reports a rare case of GCT with liver metastasis nine years post initial presentation. We also discuss surgical intervention, radiological findings, histology, treatment approaches, and review of similar reported cases.
