Q2: Which tumors are more common? Serous or surface epithelial tumors?
- Benign
- Serous
Q23:
What is the most common group of tumor that accounts for 70% of all primary ovarian masses?
Surface epithelial tumors.
MOST COMMMON TUMORS of ovarian tumors
Q23:
(T/F) Ovarian neoplasms cause the most deaths and is NOT the most common GYN tumor
True, True
( Ovarian cancer is the second most common GYN cancer, but ranks first for deaths caused by GYN cancer. In fact, it causes more deaths than all the other tumors of the the reproductive tract. )

What is a D&C?
Relatively minor procedure involving placing a tube through the cervix and into the endometrium where the tissue is aspirated or by dilating the cervix and scraping the endometrium with a curette

Hysterectomy with or without the ovaries performed for endometrial cancer
**
What is a Colposcope?
Stereoscopic microscope used to examine the vagina/cervix to magnify/detect lesions. Used to identify mucosal abnormalities (mosaic pattern), and tortuosity of the vessels at the cervix.
