Osmosis video - Ovarian surface epithelial tumors

Surface epithelial-stromal tumors (SESTs), are tumors that arise from the ovarian surface epithelium, ectopic endometrial tissue, fallopian tube epithelium, or the endocervix. They can occur in many organs and tissues, including the ovaries, uterus, and other parts of the reproductive tract. These tumors can vary in size and type and can have variable clinical behaviors depending on the type. Treatment may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and other therapies, depending on the type and severity of the tumor.
