Primary Epithelial Tumors of the Ovary

  • Chapter
Pathology of the Female Genital Tract

Abstract

In the histogenetic classification of ovarian neoplasms the epithelial tumors belong to the group of tumors of surface-epithelial and ovarian stromal origin,104 also known as tumors of “paramesonephric, celomic (germinal, müllerian) epithelial origin.”53a These constitute about two-thirds of all primary ovarian tumors and almost 90% of all ovarian cancers.104
