Among these, the mucinous tumors account for 10-15% of ovarian tumors. Mucinous ovarian tumors are among the most difficult ovarian neoplasms for surgical pathologists to interpret. Mucinous tumors sometimes coexist with other surface epithelial tumors. Therefore, ma...

background: ovarian masses represent a range of pathology from benign cyst to highly aggressive malignant tumors. it has been estimated that gynecologic malignancy account for approximately 2% of all types of cancer in children, 60-70% of these lesions arise in the ovary.  methods: all ovarian masses which were resected or biopsied in mofid children's hospital from 2002 to 2012 were review...
