title: Ovarian pathology.
abstract: During the period under review (December 1990 through January 1992), the revised World Health Organization Histological Classification of Ovarian Neoplasms and Tumor-like Lesions was completed, and it is presented herein. This system of classification incorporates recent advances and includes newly recognized entities and subtypes. A number of significant reviews covering the whole field of ovarian tumor pathology have been published, including reviews of clinical syndromes associated with ovarian neoplasia, metastatic tumors of the ovary, and the interrelationships between ovarian and appendiceal mucinous tumors and pseudomyxoma peritonei.
