*[[Serous carcinoma of the ovary]] - focus a with stromal invasion >5mm (linear measurement) ''or'' > 10 mm<sup>2</sup> (area).<ref name=Ref_GP399>{{Ref GP|399}}</ref>
**Invasive cells are "pink", i.e. have abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm,<ref name=Ref_GP399/>; also, cells usu. large (~2-3x size of non-invasive component), and typically have an enlarged nucleus (~2x non-invasive component).
*[[Clear cell carcinoma of the ovary]] - classically associated with [[endometriosis]], have simpler, smaller papillae without branching.

===Gross===
''Intestinal type mucinous borderline tumour of the ovary'' and ''endocervical type mucinous borderline tumour of the ovary'':
*Complex multiloculated mass with mucin.
*Often large - may > 30 cm.
 
===Microscopic===
====Intestinal type mucinous borderline tumour of the ovary====
Features:
*Mucinous differentiation:
**Tall [[columnar cell]]s with apical mucin - usu. resembles gastric foveolar epithelium.
*Layering of epithelial cells (stratification).
**Must be <= 3 cells.<ref name=Ref_GP416>{{Ref GP|416}}</ref>
*+/-Papillary infoldings.
**Projections into the cystic space.
*+/-Mild nuclear atypia.
*+/-Mitoses (focally).

#Borderline component must be >= 10% of the tumour.<ref name=Ref_GP>{{Ref GP|416}}</ref>
#*Lesions with <10% borderline component are known as ''[[mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary]] with focal proliferation'' or ''[[mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary]] with focal atypia''.

Features:<ref name=Ref_GP420>{{Ref GP|420}}</ref>
#Cells with mucinous differentiation resembling endocervical epithelium:
#*Tall [[columnar cell]]s with grey apical mucin.
#Cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm - known as "pink cells".
#Ciliated cells.
