Abstract:
This review focuses on the diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive molecular biomarkers in ovarian epithelial neoplasms in the context of their morphologic classifications. Currently, most clinically actionable molecular findings are reported in high-grade serous carcinomas; however, the data on less common tumor types are rapidly accelerating. Overall, the advances in genomic knowledge over the last decade highlight the significance of integrating molecular findings with morphology in ovarian epithelial tumors for a wide-range of clinical applications, from assistance in diagnosis to predicting response to therapy.
