Overview
Classification
General Classification
- Epithelial ovarian tumors can broadly be classified on the bases of histopathology and clinical behavior as:[1]
- Benign
- Borderline
- Malignant tumors
- Table below provides a summary of this classification:

WHO Classification of Ovarian Epithelial Tumors
- WHO classifies epithelial ovarian tumors on the basis of histology as follows:
- Serous tumors:
- Benign (cystadenoma)
- Borderline tumors (serous borderline tumor)
- Malignant (serous adenocarcinoma)
- Mucinous tumors:
- Benign (cystadenoma)
- Borderline tumors (mucinous borderline tumor)
- Malignant (mucinous adenocarcinoma)
- Endometrioid tumors:
- Benign (cystadenoma)
- Borderline tumors (endometrioid borderline tumor)
- Malignant (endometrioid adenocarcinoma)
- Clear cell tumors:
- Benign
- Borderline tumors
- Malignant (clear cell adenocarcinoma)
- Transitional cell tumors:
- Brenner tumor
- Brenner tumor of borderline malignancy
- Malignant Brenner tumor
- Transitional cell carcinoma (non-Brenner type)
- Epithelial-stromal:
- Adenosarcoma
- Carcinosarcoma (formerly mixed Müllerian tumors)
- Serous tumors:

Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Classification Based on Clinicopathologic and Molecular Evidence
- Recent advances in histopathology and a better understanding of clinicopathologic characteristics have led to a classification system that correlates histology and clinical characteristics;
- This classification subdivides malignant ovarian tumors in two types.
- Type I tumors generally arise from endometriosis or fallopian tubal related serous epithelium. They exhibit less aggressive clinical course and a different genetic profile relative to Type II.
- Type II tumors generally arise from fallopian tubal epithelium. They exhibit more aggressive clinical course and a different genetic profile relative to Type I.
