Ovar

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Pathologie

Zusammenfassung

Nach einer Rekapitulation der Embryologie, Anatomie und Physiologie des Ovars werden Fehlentwicklungen unter Einschluss von Intersexsyndromen dargestellt. Auf die Morphologie von funktionellen Störungen wird ausführlich eingegangen. Schwerpunkt des Kapitels sind die Tumoren des Ovars, die entsprechend der gültigen WHO-Klassifikation beschrieben werden. Dabei werden auch aktuelle Konzepte zur Histogenese des Ovarialkarzinoms umrissen.
