Clinical and pathological dates of 28 patients with granulosa- and thecacelltumors and mixed granulosatheca tumors were analysed. The present therapeutical possibilities, clinical courses and the survival rate (63.6%) are described. The treatment of granulosa tumors and mixed granulosathecatumors first of all consists in hysterectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy with following irradiation. Conservative surgical therapy is only practised on young women wanting a baby later on. The connection of hormonal active ovarian tumors and the various alterations of endometrium is pointed out. An endometrial carcinoma was diagnosed only in one case.
