Overview
Struma ovarii may be classified in to two subtypes, benign type and malignant type. Malignant Struma ovarii (MSO) are classified into three subtypes; classic variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (cPTC), follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC) and Follicular thyroid carcinoma.
Classification
Struma ovarii may be classified in to two subtypes: benign and malignant.
According to the classification proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2004 for thyroid carcinomas, malignant struma ovarii (MSO) is classified into three subtypes: [1]
- Classic variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC)
- Follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma
- Follicular thyroid carcinoma
