摘要: Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of death in women North America, and approximately two-thirds cases ovarian are high-grade serous type. The remaining comprised a mix different tumor types (e.g., endometrioid, clear cell, mucinous, etc.), with no single type accounting for more than 10% cases. These can be reproducibly diagnosed, each features distinct underlying molecular events during oncogenesis, characteristic natural history response rate to conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy. In this review abnormalities present common non-high-grade subtypes will presented. Development targeted therapies these require understanding genetic basis type, may lead subtype-specific therapy.
