Abstract
Ovarian neoplasms consist of several histopathologic entities, and treatment depends on the specific tumor type. Epithelial ovarian cancer comprises most malignant ovarian neoplasms; however, other pathologic subtypes (such as less common ovarian histopathologies) must be considered. These guidelines discuss epithelial ovarian cancer as well as less common ovarian histopathologies, including germ cell neoplasms, mixed müllerian tumors of the ovary, and ovarian stromal tumors.
