Twelve years after menopause, a 60-year-old woman undergoes laparotomy for an ovarian carcinoma. The ovarian tumor that is most likely to respond to radiotherapy is which of the following?

A
Dysgerminoma
B
Krukenberg's tumor
C
Arrhenoblastomas
D
Granulosa cell tumor
High-Yield Explanation
Dysgerminoma (like seminoma in men) is very radiosensitive. The Krukenberg's tumor is a metastatic tumor to the ovary and is not treated by radiation. The other tumors are best treated by surgery. The Brenner tumor is most often a benign tumor. Arrhenoblastomas and granuloso cell tumors are hormone-producing tumors.
