Unlabelled: These ovarian neoplasm derive from the ovarian stromal component constituting around the 5 to 12% of all ovarian tumors.
Objective: To examine the histopathological and ultrastructural morphologic characteristic of the neoplastic cells and the patognomonic element of these tumors: Call Exner's Bodies
Materials And Methods: The materials corresponded to 2 women of 52 and 55 years. The syntomatology was abdominal tumor that went in increase. The materials were fractioned for the histopathological conventional study and for ultrastructural analysis. For this last one, they were fixed in Karnovsky, refix in osmio and included in Araldita.
Results: By means of the different observations it was determined in both cases the nuclear atipia, indentations nuclei and prominent nucleoli. In one of the cases the presence of Bodies of Call-Exner was detected, and ultrastructurally was compound by whirled fibrils and amorphous material, with dense structures electron to its around. It was interest the infiltrated of plasmatic cells around the tumors cells. These neoplasms are of interest due to their impredictible behavior and to the hormonal production that can originate alterations in other organs of the genital apparatus.

Granulosa cells (GCs) are pivotal in the development of ovarian follicles, serving not only as supportive cells but also as the primary producers of steroid hormones. The proliferation of these cells and the synthesis of steroid hormones are crucial for follicular development and atresia. In our study, GCs were isolated using follicular fluid aspiration and subsequently identified through immunofluorescence.

Activation of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) elicits negative effects on the reproductive system in mammals. Omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid (FA) supplementation lowers ECS activation and has anti-inflammatory effects. Thus, we hypothesized that supplementing cows with n-3 FA will downregulate components of the ECS and immune system in preovulatory follicles and in the endometrium.

Background: Adult-type granulosa cell tumors are a rare form of ovarian cancer, 30% of which will recur. Cytoreductive surgery is often performed at the time of a first recurrence, but little is known about the impact of open versus minimally invasive surgical approaches on survival outcomes.
Objective: To examine associations between surgical approach, clinical variables, and survival outcomes among patients with adult-type granulosa cell tumors who underwent cytoreductive surgery at the time of first recurrence.
Granulosa tumors are rare tumors arising from the cells of the sexual cord and stroma of the ovary. They account for 5% of ovarian cancers and 70% of stromal cancers of the sex cords. Retroperitoneal tumors (RPTs) are also rare and develop in the retroperitoneal and subperitoneal space.

Purpose: To explore the impact of high body mass index (BMI) on the embryo quality and clinical outcomes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients, and the possible genes involved.
Methods: Patients who underwent in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment and embryo transfer in our center from November 2014 to September 2023, were divided into low BMI PCOS (LBP) group, high BMI PCOS (HBP) group, and high BMI control (HBC) group. Transcriptome sequencing was performed in eight PCOS patients' granulosa cells (GCs).
