Résumé
Granulosa cell tumors are relatively low-grade malignancies accounting for about 1 to 2% of all primary ovarian neoplasms and have an indolent growth pattern. There are two types of tumors, adult type granulosa cell tumor (AGCT) and juvenile type granulosa cell tumor (JGCT), and each tumor reveals different clinical or histopathological features. The clinical manifestations are mostly associated with estrogen produced by tumor, which are vaginal bleeding or menstrual irregularity in AGCT and precocious puberty in JGCT. Although most patients are diagnosed in early stage with favorable prognosis, some recur after several years. So, continuous follow up is required. Recently, we experienced two cases of adult type granulosa cell tumor and report with a brief review of literatures.

46,X,inv(Y)/45,X mosaicism is a extremely rare sex chromosomal disorder. We experienced an unusual mosaic Turner syndrome case in a 29-years old Korean woman with a phenotypic female, primary amenorrhea and immature secondary sexual characteristics. Cytogenetic analysis including GTG banding revealed 46,X,inv(Y)(q11.2q12?)[15]/45,X[35] mosaicism, and X/Y chromosome Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis result was ish (SRY-,DYZ3-)[16]/ ish der(Y)del(Y)(q12)inv(Y)(p11.3q12)(SRY sp, DYZ3-)[4] and its meaning was coexistence of microdeletion and inversion of Y chromosome. To our knowledge, this karyotype may be a very rare variant of Turner syndrome, and we report this case with brief review of related literature.
