Etiopathogenesis and Histogenesis of Ovarian Tumors

Abstract

has undergone the significant changes. Also, several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the epidemiological factors: the continuous ovulation hypothesis, the hypothesis of gonadotropins excessive secretion, the genetic theory, theory of microenvironment and genetic polymorphism. In recent years, the large number of studies are devoted to the study of the immune system state, the process of apoptosis, morphological and molecular cytogenetics. Сonclusions . Thus, according to epidemiological investigations, neoplasms of the ovaries can be regarded as systemic diseases, which occurs on a molecular genetic level with involvement of various endogenous and exogenous factors. However, despite the significant advancements in fundamental science, the causes of tumor appearance and, respectively, the issue of early diagnosis and prophylaxis of the most common neoplasms of the ovaries need further investigations.
