BACKGROUND: Salpingectomy is recommended as a risk-reducing strategy for epithelial tubo-ovarian cancer. The gold standard procedure is complete tubal excision. OBJECTIVE: To assess the presence of residual fimbrial/tubal tissue on ovarian …
Ovarian mucinous borderline tumors are traditionally divided into 2 morphologic groups: endocervical type, also known as seromucinous, and intestinal type. We present a case of stage 4B seromucinous ovarian borderline tumor with endometrios…
AIMS: To look for FOXL2 mutation in rare ovarian epithelial lesions showing stromal components with morphological features of adult granulosa cell tumour (AGCT). METHODS AND RESULTS: We report the 402C→G FOXL2 mutation status in five epithe…
