Virilizing form of ovarian juvenile granulosa tumor: A case report

Juvenile granulosa tumor is a sex cord stromal tumor extremely rare, with usually estrogenic effects, while virilizing form is exceptional, often discovered at a stage confined to the ovary, justifying therefore a conservative treatment. Its prognosis appears favorable, depending on early management. However, its evolvement may be hampered by early and aggressive recurrence.We report a new case compiled in Obstetrics Gynecology Service (HMIMV) of virilizing form of juvenile granulosa cell tumors, discovered during a recent exacerbation of a preexisting androgen syndrome in a girl of 24 years. It's extreme rarity prompted us to report it highlighting, through a literature review, its diagnostic features, therapeutic and evolutionary.
