Granulosa tumors are rare malignant tumors of the ovary. There are two histological types: the adult form (95%) and the juvenile form (5%). They often occur in the adult population with extreme ages ranging from 40 to 70 years. The clinical signs are very variable with a slow evolution and a risk of recurrence that can go up to 30-40 years after the diagnosis. The radiological diagnosis is based on ultrasound data and magnetic resonance image (MRI). Radical surgical treatment is the basis of their therapeutic management.
