ABSTRACT
Background: Globally, ovarian cancer is the seventh neoplasm and the eight
oncologic cause of death in women, responsible of 150,000 deaths per year, with a
5 year survival under the 45%, mainly represented by high-grade serous carcinomas.
Findings such as serous intraepithelial carcinomas and genetic predisposition have
become a constant for the vast majority of cases.
Objective: To summarize and review the most recent advances about the carcinogenesis
of the ovarian serous tumors, its implications on the pathological diagnosis
and the consequences of these new concepts for the clinical and surgical therapies.
Materials and Methods: We performed a systematic search to select all kinds
of languages articles, using the keywords “serous ovarian neoplasms” AND “carcinogenesis”
AND “low-grade serous carcinoma” OR “high-grade serous carcinoma”. Two
investigators independently extracted characteristics and results to select the articles.
Two pathologists independently did the assessment of the preselected articles selecting
the most appropriate ones, based on their utility for this review.
Results: 66 articles were selected and included in the bibliography for this review.
Conclusions: A better understanding of the physiopathology and many other new
findings that have been done during the last decade are essential for the treatment of
this patients, for the creation and application of strategies for primary prevention and
screening for the risk, and the medical and surgical interventions, mainly directed
to patients with mutations on
BRCA, family history of breast, ovarian or peritoneal
cancer, among other conditions. A multidisciplinary and updated approach will affect
significantly the long-term survival.
