Comments:
Architectural Patterns in Adult Granulosa Cell Tumor of the Ovary: Like gyriform pattern, the so-called watered-silk pattern consists of delicate linear ribbons and cords of tumor cells separated by variable amounts of stroma. Note the close resemblance to infiltrating lobular breast carcinoma. In cases like this, metastatic lobular breast carcinoma should be excluded (see further discussion in differential diagnosis).
