Abstract (2. Language): 
Granulosa cell tumor accounts for 1.5% of all ovarian neoplasms. It is an estrogen producing neoplasm. It is of two types, an adult type that occurs mainly in postmenopausal women and a juvenile type that usually occurs in prepubertal girls and women younger than 30 years. The common presenting symptoms are abnormal vaginal bleeding in postmenopausal woman and menorrhagia, metrorrhagia or amenorrhea in those who are premenopausal. Complete surgical resection of the tumor is the treatment of choice. Recurrent disease tends to occur many years after the initial diagnosis so long-term follow up is needed. We report a case of adult granulosa cell tumor in a 55 year old woman.
