Feminizing ovarian tumors and pregnancy

The case histories of 37 women with feminizing ovarian tumors, 8 the-comas and 29 granulosa cell, were studied. Two were described by the writers and the other 35 were obtained from the recorded experience of others. The physiologic behavior of the neoplasms was considered in three groups in relation to their effect on pregnancy. In one, the tumor and pregnancy existed together, in another abortive tendencies antedated the diagnosis, and, in the third, the neoplasm apparently precluded conception through its hormonal activity. After its removal pregnancy occurred.
