Solid ovarian tumors are predominantly malignant (83.8%). Epithelial tumors are most common, with germ cell tumors occurring in younger patients. Pain and pelvic fullness are key symptoms.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Solid ovarian tumors represent a significant subset of ovarian neoplasms.
  • Understanding their incidence, types, and clinical presentation is crucial for diagnosis and management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence, histological types, and clinical characteristics of solid ovarian tumors.
  • To investigate age distribution, bilaterality, presenting symptoms, and specific tumor subtypes.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective histological review of 117 solid ovarian tumors diagnosed between 1971 and 1990.
  • Analysis of incidence, benign vs. malignant proportions, tumor types, age, bilaterality, and symptoms.

Main Results:

  • Solid ovarian tumors constituted 23.4% of all ovarian tumors studied.
  • Malignant tumors (83.8%) predominated over benign (16.2%).
  • Epithelial tumors (28.2%) were most frequent, followed by germ cell (22.2%), sex cord stromal (21.4%), and metastatic (19.7%) tumors. Germ cell tumors had a lower average age (26.8 years).
  • Pain and pelvic fullness were present in 94.9% of cases. Krukenberg tumors comprised 88.9% of metastatic cases.

    • Conclusions:

    • Solid ovarian tumors are frequently malignant, with diverse histological origins.
    • Early recognition of symptoms and accurate histological diagnosis are vital for patient outcomes.
    • Further research into prognostic factors and diagnostic challenges is warranted.
