The clinical and pathological features of three cases of juvenile granulosa cell tumors occurring in infants were studied. Precocious pseudopuberty developed in two patients and acute abdominal symptoms related to the rupture of the tumor developed in one. Surgery was the only treatment in each case and no adjuvant therapy was delivered. No patient experienced relapse. Histological examination showed a predominantly diffuse pattern with prominent luteinization. Call-Exner bodies were absent. Two tumors had multilocular thin walled cysts containing large amounts of estradiol, the third one contained rudimentary microfollicles. The prognosis of juvenile granulosa cell tumors in infancy appears more favorable than those occurring in older patients. No case of tumor recurrence has been reported in infancy so far. Surgery appears to be the state-of-the-art treatment of these tumors and additional therapy (chemotherapy or radiotherapy) must be discussed with caution, even in advanced stages.
