Preferred term

Granulosa Cell Tumor  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Broader concept

Entry terms

  • Cancer, Granulosa Cell
  • Cancers, Granulosa Cell
  • Cell Cancer, Granulosa
  • Cell Cancers, Granulosa
  • Granulosa Cell Cancer
  • Granulosa Cell Cancers

Note

  • coordinate IM with probably OVARIAN NEOPLASMS (IM); do not confuse with GRANULAR CELL TUMOR, a myoblastoma

Scope note

  • 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.
