Peritoneal Implants of Ovarian Serous Borderline Tumors: Histologic Features and Prognosis
TL;DR: The clinicopathologic features of 56 cases of ovarian serous borderline tumors associated with peritoneal implants and the results of a stratified analysis suggest that patients may benefit from additional therapy if adverse prognostic factors are present, especially invasiveness or severe cytologic atypia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serous psammocarcinoma of the ovary: a case report and review of literature.
TL;DR: Serous psammocarcinoma is a rare form of ovarian carcinoma with only 13 cases reported in literature, and prognostic factors suggest that this neoplasm has more favorable prognosis than usual serous carcinomas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary peritoneal serous psammocarcinoma with recurrent disease and metastasis: a case report and review of the literature.
TL;DR: Clinicians should be aware that patients with psammocarcinoma may have a clinically aggressive, recurrent, and metastatic tumor that necessitated systemic therapy.

Primary psammocarcinoma of the peritoneum.
T. Bilgin,S. Özuysal,H. Cankiliç +2 more
TL;DR: Primary surgical debulking with complete resection of the tumor should be the main surgical approach, while the benefit of postoperative chemotherapy remains unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serous psammocarcinoma of the ovary: an unusual finding.
TL;DR: A 70-year-old patient was admitted to the emergency room after falling at home and CT evaluation revealed a pelvic mass and free fluid in the abdomen and pelvis as mentioned in this paper.

Journal ArticleDOI
Serous psammocarcinoma of the ovary and peritoneum
TL;DR: The clinical behavior of psammocarcinoma more closely resembles that of borderline serous tumors than of serous carcinomas of the usual type, following a protracted course and being associated with a relatively favorable prognosis.

Extraovarian pelvic serous tumor with marked calcification.
TL;DR: Two cases of low-grade extraovarian pelvic serous tumor with large numbers of psammoma bodies are reported, which belong to the small group of serous carcinomas that arise from the peritoneum.

Prognostic importance of psammoma bodies in adenocarcinomas of the ovaries

TL;DR: Using a life-table technique for survival analysis, it was not possible to demonstrate a significant difference in survival rates in cases with and without psammoma bodies, although the histological type, tumor stage, and grade, all known to be of prognostic importance, are kept constant.
