PATHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF OVARIAN NEOPLASMS .2. PROLIFERATING EPITHELIAL TUMORS

All neoplasms of the ovary encountered in a 25-year study period at the King George V Memorial Hospital were classified according to the World Health Organisation Histological Classification of Ovarian Tumours. Of these, one thousand fell into the category designated as 'common epithelial tumours' In this report a detailed histological assessment of the 144 proliferating epithelial tumours is presented, including the criteria for distinguishing them from their benign and malignant counterparts and for histological typing and grading of these tumours. © 1979 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
