Transrectal ultrasonography (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TRUS<\/jats:styled-content>) revealed that the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RO<\/jats:styled-content>was markedly enlarged and multicystic, while the left ovary (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">LO<\/jats:styled-content>) was small and inactive. The presumptive diagnosis was granulosa\u2010theca cell tumour (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GTCT<\/jats:styled-content>), which was confirmed by markedly elevated plasma anti\u2010M\u00fcllerian hormone (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AMH<\/jats:styled-content>) of 4.42\u00a0ng\/ml. Therefore, ovariectomy of the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RO<\/jats:styled-content>was the treatment of choice. The heifer was checked by<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TRUS<\/jats:styled-content>and blood sampling on D 42, D 63 and immediately before ovariectomy on D 85. On D 42,<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">TRUS<\/jats:styled-content>did not show marked changes in either ovary in comparison with D 0. However, on D 63, the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RO<\/jats:styled-content>had transformed into a single cyst, and on D 85, the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">LO<\/jats:styled-content>had resumed cyclic activity. The<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RO<\/jats:styled-content>was extracted on D 85 by hand\u2010assisted laparoscopic ovariectomy to allow better control. Unexpectedly, histopathology revealed the lesion to be a fluid\u2010filled cystic structure, with no neoplastic proliferation of follicular epithelium that would indicate<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GTCT<\/jats:styled-content>. The wall of the cystic structure consisted of collagen fibres and a few degenerated granulosa cells. The retrospective hormonal analysis revealed that the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AMH<\/jats:styled-content>concentrations had markedly dropped on D 63 and 85, which coincided with resumption of cyclicity in the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">LO<\/jats:styled-content>. These findings suggest that the<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">GTCT<\/jats:styled-content>had self\u2010cured and transformed into a cyst\u2010like structure. The heifer then received an oestrous synchronization regime on D 105, was artificially inseminated on D 115 and became pregnant.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/rda.12555","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,20]],"date-time":"2015-06-20T00:51:37Z","timestamp":1434761497000},"page":"696-703","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Evidence
