Serous ovarian cancer is a type of epithelial ovarian cancer. The epithelium is the tissue in your body that covers your organs and blood vessels. Epithelial ovarian cancer is cancer that starts in the epithelium covering your ovaries. About 85 to 90 percent of all ovarian cancer cases are epithelial ovarian cancer.
C54. 1 - Malignant neoplasm of endometrium | ICD-10-CM.
C56. 9, Malignant neoplasm of unspecified ovary.
The “high-grade” in high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas refers to ovarian carcinomas that are classified as Grade 3. “Serous” means that the tumor arose from the serous membrane, in the epithelial layer in the abdominopelvic cavity.
High-grade serous carcinoma is the most malignant form of ovarian cancer and accounts for up to 70% of all ovarian cancer cases. The majority of high-grade serous ovarian cancers have recently been found to originate in the fallopian tube, not the ovary.

Uterine papillary serous carcinoma: a highly malignant form of endometrial adenocarcinoma.
USC is the most aggressive endometrial cancer, representing less than 10% of all cases, a disproportionate number of deaths and a poor 5-year overall survival of 55%. With such a dismal prognosis, these patients should be treated aggressively. Patients should receive complete surgical staging.
Background: Advanced-stage (III/IV) uterine papillary serous carcinoma (UPSC) has a median overall survival (OS) of ~ 3 yrs.
A: Most cases of high grade serous ovarian cancer are diagnosed at an advanced stage (stage 3 or 4) and the disease is widespread. In these cases, the 5 year survival rates are 15 per cent. For those diagnosed early in stage 1 or 2, the five year survival rate is much higher at approximately 80 per cent.

However, if there are associated underlying conditions presenting overlapping signs and symptoms, there could be a delay in diagnosis.
The treatment of Serous Carcinoma of Endometrium may depend upon a consideration of the following set of factors:
In many cases, these tumors are diagnosed in their later stages (advanced cancer stage) A variety of factors are known to influence the development of Serous Carcinoma of Endometrium including poorly-controlled diabetes, tamoxifen use, and polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Serous Carcinoma of End ometrium is a subtype of endometrial cancer, which begins in the lining of the uterus (the endometrium). The majority of these cancer cases are detected and diagnosed in women aged 50 years and older (postmenopausal women)
If Serous Carcinoma of Endometrium is diagnosed early, then a surgical removal of the uterus (where possible) may help eliminate the cancer.
Most Serous Carcinoma of Endometrium cases are observed in women aged 50 years and older (frequently in women over 65 years); women under the age of 40 years are rarely diagnosed with cancers of the endometrium.
A variety of factors are known to influence the development of Serous Carcinoma of Endometrium including poorly-controlled diabetes, tamoxifen use, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. The exact cause of the cancer is unknown, but it may be due to certain genetic abnormalities
