title: Laparoscopic surgical therapy and staging in a case of early malignant granulosa cell tumor of the ovary.
abstract: An early right granulosa cell tumor was removed without rupture through the vaginal route after laparoscopic division of the ovarian ligament. Staging biopsies, peritoneal cytology, infracolic omentectomy, pelvic and right infrarenal para-aortic dissection were completed laparoscopically. The patient was discharged on the third day, and she is doing well 22 months postoperatively.
