Genetics
Associated Conditions
Gross Pathology
Features:
Multiloculated. Sticky, gelatinous fluid (glycoprotein). +/-Necrosis. Typically unilateral.[3]
Microscopic Pathology
Features:
Mucinous differentiation. Tall columnar cells in glands with apical mucin. May have an endocervical-like or intestinal-like appearance - see subtypes. Invasive morphology - one of the following: Back-to-back glands/confluent growth pattern. Desmoplastic stromal response. Cribriforming of glands. Malignant characteristics: +/-Nuclear atypia. +/-Necrosis. No cilia.
