Distinction of primary ovarian mucinous tumors from metastatic/secondary mucinous tumors
involving the ovaries is often challenging, not only at the time of intraoperative assessment
when requested for surgical management (staging decisions) but also for final pathologic
diagnosis. Previous studies have shown that a simple algorithm using tumor size and
laterality (bilateral tumors of any size, or unilateral tumor< 10 cm= metastatic; unilateral
tumor≥ 10 cm= primary) can accurately classify a substantial majority of tumors. To assess …
