Abstract
An unusual case of pancytopenia associated with a granulosa-cell tumor of the ovary in a 44-year-old woman is reported. Initially the patient was thought to have the rare, but well recognized, syndrome of hemolytic anemia complicating an ovarian tumor. However, laboratory studies and clinical follow-up ruled out hyperhemolysis and documented a condition of bone-marrow failure. Excision of the massive tumor was followed by hematologic recovery, which has now lasted more than a year and a half.Keywords
