title: Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary.
abstract: In the past 20 years, approximately half of the 25 women with granulosa cell tumor of the ovary studied, were dead. The results showed that recurrence or metastasis had a statistically significant correlation with survival. The other factors, such as the patients' age, the content of the tumor, ascites, endometrial change, mitosis and rupture, have no relationship with the survival rate in our study.
