Unit 5 Ovarian Pathology Pt 2

This educational video teaches students to identify and differentiate malignant ovarian tumors, including immature teratomas, epithelial ovarian cancers, germ cell tumors, and sex cord stromal tumors, using ultrasound imaging and clinical findings. Students will learn characteristic sonographic features such as solid-cystic components, vascularity patterns, calcifications, and associated tumor markers (AFP, HCG, CA-125) to recognize potentially malignant pathology and understand when to escalate findings to radiologists. The unit emphasizes the importance of early detection for improving prognosis and preserving fertility in younger patients.
