Abstract:
Ovarian seromucinous tumors are a group of ovarian epithelial tumors that primarily affect young women of childbearing age.The nomenclature and classification of these tumors undergone a complex historical evolution.Due to their diverse and complex morphological features,pathologists often encountered difficulties in applying diagnostic criteria.As a result,underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis were common in current clinical practice,which may even affect the choice of treatment for patients.This article aims to provide a detailed account of the historical changes in the no-menclature of ovarian seromucinous tumors,the common diagnostic challenges encountered in current clinical practice and their corresponding strategies,as well as to explore potential future research directions.It is hoped that this will enhance the understanding of these diseases among pathologists and gynecologists,and provide guidance for the formu-lation of appropriate treatment strategies and further scientific research.
