Imaging ovarian tumours : part 2

Abstract

In the first article of this series we outlined the large spectrum of ovarian tumours which are grossly divided into four groups: epithelial surface cell tumours, germ cell tumours, sex cord/stromal tumours and metastases.1 A general introduction of the subtypes of each tumour group was presented and the most common tumour group, the serous epithelial tumours, was discussed in more detail. This second article in the series will discuss mucinous epithelial tumours, other less common epithelial tumour (endometrial and clear cell carcinomas) and epithelial- stromal tumours (Brenner tumours, adenofibroma and cystadenofibromas).
