Mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary
Diagnosis in short

Ovarian mucinous cystadenoma. H&E stain.

LM cysts lined by a simple mucinous epithelium, no cytologic atypia
LM DDx seromucinous borderline tumour of the ovary, mucinous borderline tumour of the ovary
Gross multiloculated cystic lesion, thin cyst walls/no solid areas
Site ovary - see ovarian tumours

Prevalence common
Prognosis benign
Treatment cystectomy/oophorectomy

Mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary, also ovarian mucinous cystadenoma, is a common benign ovarian tumour.

It is unrelated to mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix.
