Ovarian cancer. Light micrograph (LM) of a section of a granulosa cell tumour of the ovary. Granulosa cell tumor (GCT) of the ovary is an uncommon neoplasm that represents 2% to 5% of all ovarian cancers. As the name implies,GCT is derived from the granulosa cell,a hormonally active component of the ovarian stroma that is responsible for estradiol (female sex hormone) production. Granulosa cell tumors of the ovary are considered as low grade malignancies with a relatively more favorable prognosis compared with much more commonly encountered epithelial ovarian tumors.
