Özet: Background and Objectives: Ovary is a complex organ in terms of its embryology, Histology, Steroidogenesis and malignancy. Histomorphological study of ovarian tumors is undertaken with the aim of studying age distribution and histomorphological characterization of ovarian tumors. Material and methods: The study is undertaken for the period of 2 yrs. From August 2015 to July 2017 prospectively at the Upgraded Department of Pathology, Osmania Medical college. All the specimens of ovarian tumours received were subjected to routine processing and histopathological examination. Results: Total numbers of 80 cases were studied. Among these 38 cases (51.6%) were Benign tumours, 9 cases (17.5%) were Borderline tumors and 25 (31.5%) cases were malignant. Benign neoplasms peaked in 4th decade and Malignant in 5th decade. The serous surface epithelial tumors were the Commonest among other surface epithelial tumors.Conclusion: Benign surface epithelial tumours are the most prevalent type in this study. Categorization will help in the accurate diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
