This retrospective study examines the histopathologic patterns of ovarian masses in 87 patients treated at Patna Medical College and Hospital from January 2019 to July 2021. The analysis reveals that 64.4% of the masses were benign, predominantly serous and mucinous cystadenomas, while 20.7% were malignant, with serous adenocarcinoma being the most common. Borderline tumors accounted for 14.9% of the cases. The study found a notable correlation between patient age and the type of ovarian mass, with benign lesions more common in patients under 50 and malignant or borderline tumors more frequent in those over 50. These findings underscore the critical role of histopathologic evaluation in the diagnosis and management of ovarian masses, emphasizing the need for tailored screening and treatment strategies.
