Hello and welcome to HCM,
The biopsy of the ovary reveals a malignant tumor of low malignant potential.
The malignancy is of epithelial origin and secretes mucin.
The tumor cells are invading the underlying stroma. Invasion of the stroma signifies that the tumor is aggressive and requires surgical removal and chemotherapy.
There are chances that the tumor can spread beyond the ovary.
Thus, prompt treatment is required.
Thanks and take care
