Ovaries
5
The most important medical problems in ovaries are the neoplasms
Death from ovarian cancers is more than that of cervix and uterus together
Silent growth of ovarian tumors is the rule ,which make them so dangerous
![Page 6: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Ovarian Cysts and Tumors
6
Non neoplastic cysts are common but they are not serious problems
Primary inflammation of ovaries is rare Salpingitis of fallopian tubes frequently causes
periovarian reaction (salpingo-Oophoritis) Frequently ,the ovaries affected by
endometriosis.

Non-Neoplastic and Functional Cysts of ovary
7
Non Neoplastic Cyst are more common than the neoplastic ones
Follicular and Luteal cysts are most probably physiologic
cystic follicles:Innocent lesions originate from unruptured follicles or in follicles that have ruptured and sealed. Usually they are small 1 – 1.5 cm ,and filled by clear fluid
![Page 8: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Follicular Cyst
8
Is due to distention of unruptured graafian follicle
It is sometimes associated with hyperestrinism and endometrial hyperplasia.

Corpus luteum cyst
9
It results from hemorrhage into a persistent mature corpus luteum.

Theca lutein cyst
10
Results from gonadotropin stimulation. Often multiple and bilateral.

Chocolate cyst
11
Is a blood containing cyst resulting from ovarian endometriosis with hemorrhage.
The ovary is the most common site for endometriosis.

Secondary to excessive production of estrogens and androgens, mainly androgens
The ovaries are usually twice normal in size ,gray-white with smooth outer surface
Studded with sub cortical cysts 0.5 to 1.5 cm in diameter.

Ovarian TumorsSurface Epithelium Origin
29
Neoplasms of surface epithelium account for the great majority of all primary ovarian tumors.
![Page 30: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ovarian Tumors ,Surface Epithelium Origin
30
65 – 70 % of overall tumors 90 % of malignant tumors Age 20+ Traditionally divided into
Benign ,Malignant ,and Borderline in malignancy
Can be strictly epithelial (serous ,Mucinous)
![Page 31: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Ovarian Tumors ,Surface Epithelium Origin
31
Can have stromal component (Cystadenofibroma ,
Brenner tumor )
![Page 32: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Ovarian Tumors ,Surface Epithelium Origin
32
The intermediate ,or the borderline tumors are referred as tumors of low malignant potential
These appear to be low grade cancers with limited invasive potential
They have better prognosis
![Page 33: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Serous Tumors
33
The most frequent ovarian tumor Age is 30 -40 May be solid ,usually cystic Cystadenoma or Cystadenofibroma 65% benign ,15% low malignant potential ,
and 25% malignant 65 % of all ovarian cancers
![Page 34: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Serous Tumors
34
Most are large ,spherical to ovoid ,cystic structures
5 – 10 cm and might be 30-40 cm 25% of benign tumors are bilateral The surface of the benign is smooth and
glistening .In contrast to the malignant forms ,the surface is nodular and irregular
![Page 35: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Serous Tumors
35
Cystic spaces are filled by serous fluide Papillary formation is very important and
need to be sampled well Histologically the benign tumors are lined
by a single layer of tall columnar epithelium
Papillary formation can be seen in both the benign and the malignant ones
![Page 36: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Serous Tumors
36
Psammoma bodies could be seen Between the clearly benign and the solid
malignant tumors we can see the tumors of low malignant potential
LMP tumors may seed the peritoneum, the implants of tumors are non invasive. Sometimes may behave as invasive peritoneal implants
![Page 37: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Serous Tumors
37
The prognosis of LMP tumors is determined mainly by the nature of the peritoneal implants
Prognosis of invasive Serous cystadenocarcinoma after surgery ,chemotherapy ,and radiation is poor and depend on stage
70% 5 –year survival for the tumors confined to the ovary
![Page 38: Ovarian Tumor1](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022012910/563dbb82550346aa9aadc71c/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Serous Tumors
38
5 year survival f0r LMP is 100% , Malignant Tumors with capsular
invasion ,survival for 10 years is 13% LMP with capsular invasion the 10 year
survival is 80%.

the tumor is rich in α-fetoprotein and α1-antitrypsin.
Its characteristic histologic feature is a glomerulus-like structure composed of a central blood vessel enveloped by germ cells within a space lined by germ cells (Schiller-Duval body)
stained for α-fetoprotein by immunoperoxidase techniques
Most patients are children or young women presenting with abdominal pain and a rapidly developing pelvic mass. The tumors usually appear to involve a single ovary but grow rapidly and aggressively.
