Hormone secreting juvenile granulosa cell tumor of the ovary in an infant presenting with massive ascites and precocious pseudopuberty

Juvenile granulosa cell tumors (JGCTs), account for 4–5% of GCTs, the rare sex cord stromal tumors. Presentation of JGCTs in infants is even rarer. We present case of a 3-month-old female infant with abdominal distension, feeding intolerance and fever of 10 days' duration. The child had gross a...
