Non-Epithelial Ovarian Tumors. Clinicopathological Issues

Description

This book aims to become a useful tool in the field of gynecologic oncology providing the most up-to-date research on non-epithelial ovarian tumors, including the recent data on pathogenesis and the current strategies for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. The authors present and review important data on rare and various primary ovarian neoplasms such as the many subtypes of germ cell tumors, of the most important subtypes of Sex cord -Stromal tumors and the rare mixed forms of Germ cell and Gonadal –Stromal tumors. Non-specific mesenchymal tumors of the ovary are reviewed, as well as Secondary neoplasms, metastatic to the ovary from various sites (extragenital and genital primaries). (Imprint: Nova Biomedical)
