List of ovarian tumors

Ovarian tumor
Ovarian tumors by incidence and risk of ovarian cancer[1]
SpecialtyGynaecology

Ovarian tumors, or ovarian neoplasms, are tumors of the ovary.[2] Not all are ovarian cancer.[2] They consists of mainly solid tissue, while ovarian cysts contain fluid.

In 2020, the WHO divided ovarian tumors as 90% epithelial, 3% germ cell, and 2% sex cord-stromal types.[3]

Serous tumors

ClassTypeSubtypesEpidemiologyCommentsMicrographImage
Serous tumor of the ovary[4] Benign serous tumors[5] Serous cystadenoma of the ovary
Serous surface papilloma
Serous adenofibroma
Serous borderline tumor Serous borderline tumor, micropapillary variant
Malignant serous tumors carcinoma Low grade serous carcinoma of the ovary (LGSC)[6] Rare, 2-5% of ovarian cancers, 5-10% of serous ovarian cancers[6] May occur following a serous borderline tumor.[6]

80% diagnosed at advanced stage[6]

Better survival rate than HGSC.[6]

High-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary (HGSC) Distinct from LGSC[6]

80% diagnosed at advanced stage[6]

Germ cell tumors

TypeSubtypeRelative incidence[7]Percent malignant[7]CommentsMicrographImage
Germ cell tumorMature teratoma of the ovary[8] 20% of all ovarian tumors[8]Mostly benign, rarely become cancerous[8]Cystic, with elements of all 3 germ layers (endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm).[9]
Hair follicles.
Immature teratoma of the ovary[10] 2.5%100%A teratoma that contains anaplastic immature elements, and is often synonymous with malignant teratoma.[11]
Dysgerminoma of ovary[12] 1% of all ovarian cancers[12]
Yolk sac tumor[13] 20% of cancerous ovarian germ cell tumors[13]
Embryonal carcinoma[14]
Non-gestational choriocarcinoma[15]
Mixed germ cell tumor[16]

Sex cord-stromal tumor

Sex cord-stromal tumor can be purely stromal, purely sex cord, or mixed sex-cord subtypes.[17]

TypeSubtypeRelative incidence[7]Percent malignant[7]CommentsMicrographImage
Sex cord-stromal tumor: pure stromal tumors, pure sex cord tumors and mixed sex cord-stromal tumorsOvarian fibroma 1.5%0%Spindle-shaped fibroblastic cells and abundant collagen.[18]
Adult granulosa cell tumor 1%Almost 100%Small, bland, cuboidal to polygonal cells in various patterns.[19]
Other sex cord-stromal tumors 1%Others include mainly juvenile granulosa cell tumor, thecoma and sclerosing stromal tumor[7]
Sex cord-stromal tumor NOS The number of people who have this type of tumor, and the cause of it, is not known.[17]A few may be cancerous, with a 92% 5-year survival rate.[17]Also known as neoplasms of uncertain behaviour of female genital organs and sex cord-gonadal stroll tumor, it is a tumor without clearly defined features of a particular tumor.[17] They may be solid or a mixture of solid and cystic.[17]

Surface epithelial-stromal tumor

TypeSubtypeRelative incidence[7]Percent malignant[7]CommentsMicrographImage
Surface epithelial-stromal tumorSerous tumor 25%18.5%Benign serous tumors of the right ovarian cyst are thinwalled unilocular cysts that are lined by ciliated pseudostratified cuboidal or columnar epithelium.[20]
Mucinous tumor 15%8.8%Benign mucinous tumors of the ovary consist of simple, nonstratified columnar epithelium with basally-located hyperchromatic nuclei and resemble gastric foveolar epithelium.[20]
Endometrioid tumor 1%Almost 100%Tubular glands, resembling endometrium.[21]
Other surface-epithelial tumors 1.5%Others include mainly malignant mixed mullerian tumor, Brenner tumor and mixed epithelial tumor.[7]

Mixed tumors contain elements of more than one of the above classes of tumor histology.
