Fine needle aspiration cytologic features of hepatic metastasis of granulosa cell tumor of the ovary. Differential diagnosis.
The cytologic findings from a fine needle aspiration biopsy of hepatic metastases of a granulosa cell tumor are described. While the cytologic features of the tumor were characteristic, the early recurrence in an unusual site makes this case noteworthy. The differential diagnosis of granulosa cell tumors from other metastatic and primary liver tumors is discussed.
