Abstract

Ovarian granulosa cell tumors are uncommon low-grade malignancies. They are characterized by their long history and their tendency to recur years after an apparent clinical cure. Only a small percentage of granulosa cell tumors metastasize, and they rarely do so to the liver. In this paper, we present a case of hepatic metastasis treated by surgery and BEP combination chemotherapy, with a brief review of corresponding literatures.
