Q

Describe the histological features of fibromas

A

Fibromas are made almost entirely of fibroblasts.
Cellular fibromas are a type of fibroma characterized by:
- mildly increased cellular density,
- mild nuclear atypia, and an
- average of three or fewer mitotic figures per 10 high power fields (HPF)

Q

Describe the histological appearance of adult granulosa cell tumours?

A

Contain small, bland, cuboidal (to polygonal) cells with scant cytoplasm and pale, uniform and usually grooved nuclei (coffee bean). Mitotic activity is usually not brisk ( < 3 / 10 HPF)

  • Hypervascular stroma with vairable amounts of fibroblasts and theca cells
  • cells may arrange themselves in small clusters or rosette around a central cavity - termed call exner bodies.

Q

When does a thecoma or fibroma with sex cord elements become categorised as a granulosa cell tumour?

A
  • need 10% granulosa cells to be classified as adult granulosa cell tumor, otherwise best classified as thecoma or fibroma with minor sex cord element
21
Q

What is a call-exner body?

A

Are small eosinophilic fluid filled punched out spaced between granulosa cells. The granulosa cells are usually arranged haphazardly around the space. They are pathognomonic for granulosa cell tumours.
