Saunders (Independence Square West, Philadelphia PA 19106-3399, United States) | Place of publication: | United States | Publication information: | Human Pathology. 19 (1) (pp 15-18), 1988. Date of Publication: 1988. | Abstract: | Fifty-three stage I borderline mucinous tumors of the ovary were placed into four histologic grades according to a simple system of grading based on degree of cell layering, nuclear characteristics, and mitotic count. Three patients died of recurrence and spread of their tumors. All three patients had grade 4 tumors, suggesting that there may be some prognostic value in grading borderline mucinous ovarian tumors. | PubMed URL: | 2826326 [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=2826326] | ISSN: | 0046-8177 | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/34716 | Type: | Article |
