Abstract :

Ovarian tumors are relatively common and account for 6% of female malignancies. Not only primary, the ovary is also the favorite site for metastatic tumors. The benign tumors of the ovary out number the malignant tumors by a wide range. In this study an effort was made to review these tumors. Materials and Methods: It was a retrospective study conducted over a period of 3 years. Results: Out of 3124 gynecological specimens received, we diagnosed 136 ovarian neoplasms. We also reported two Krukenberg tumors. Conclusion: The study of macroscopic and microscopic features of different ovarian tumors will enable for categorization into exact morphological types which will help the gynecologists for proper treatment and follow up. Primary lymphoma of ovary needs confirmation by IHC which is positive for leucocyte common antigen and CD20. Immunohistochemistry is very much essential in differentiating various germ cell tumors
