Overview
In the large group of uterine and ovarian tumors, the knowledge was updated in recent years substantially. New entities were defined and changes in classification of the lesions were performed. This review is limited to updates, such as evaluation of uterine smooth muscle tumors, new variants of uterine stromal tumors, uterine tumors resembling ovarian sex-cord tumor (UTROSCT), perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEC-omas), ovarian fibroma and fibrosarcoma, sclerosing stromal tumor and myxoma. Group of tumors of specialized gonadal stroma is not discussed as it represents particular area and thus requires a separated review article.
Key words:
