“…Presentation is commonly as FIGO stage I (60%) because unlike epithelial ovarian tumours symptoms due to oestrogen secretion lead to early diagnosis [7]. Presentation may also be nonspecific as with epithelial ovarian tumours [8]and rarely tumours may be androgenic [9].…”

Ovarian tumours of non-epithelial origin are less common than those of epithelial origin but must be distinguished from these as their natural history and management differ. As these tumours are rare, histological review by an expert in the field is essential. There have been no randomised trials to outline the management of these tumours and therefore this paper represents a review of descriptive data. Non-epithelial ovarian tumours, which represent approximately 50% of all ovarian tumours and approximately 25% of malignant ovarian tumours, are outlined. Lymphomas and metastatic tumours should be treated the same as when found in other sites and will not be discussed further.

A rare case of acute abdomen syndrome due to a ruptured ovarian tumor and a penetrated fallopian tube is described. Based on the intraoperative finding and patient's age, a right-sided salpingo-oophorectomy, appendectomy and peritoneal washings were performed. After a histological diagnosis of malignant granulosa cell tumors and FIGO IIA clinical classification, the patient returned 1 month after the procedure. A relaparotomy with a hysterectomy, left-sided salpingo-oophorectomy and omentectomy were then performed. No spread was found during the laparotomy, and the histologic diagnosis pointed to adenomyosis and chronic cervicitis. The patient regularly presents for control examination, and has now been free for 11 years since the surgery from clinical, biochemical or ultrasonographic signs of a relapse of the disease.
