Abstract

The results of the clinical and therapeutic factors in prognostic mean was presented. 48 cases of granulosa cell tumours treated from 1984 to 1994 in Oncology Centre in Warsaw were analysed. In investigated group 13 patients died, but only 8 because of relapse of the tumour. Among all analysed patients, 79% have reached 5 years free survival period. Tumour rupture, FIGO stage and incidence of irregular bleeding before recognition of the tumour had significant prognostic value. There were surprising that relative risk of relapse between patients stage I and II were similar (1.0 vs 1.01). The relative risk between I and III stage had strong prognostic difference. Additional operation after no radical surgery did not influence on better prognosis, but followed radiotherapy increase treatment results.
