Background: In the present scenario, ovarian cancer is a leading cause of cancer incidence and mortality worldwide, proper categorization into exact morphological type will help the gynecologist for better diagnosis and management. Aim & Objective: The present study has mainly investigated the incidence, morphological, gross, histopathological pattern, and incidence of the age distribution of ovarian tumors attending a tertiary care hospital. Methodology: It is a prospective study carried out at Katuri Medical College and Hospital, Chinakondrupadu, Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India over a period of 2 yrs. i.e., from October 2017 to September 2019 in the department of Pathology. Sections were processed and stained with H&E, histomorphological patterns were noted. Wherever necessary, special stains such as PAS and Recticulin were used. Results: In the present study, age range from 15 to 65 years with a majority of cases included, among 36-45 years, 26 (52 %) cases. In the total study population, Out of 50 ovarian tumors included, 76% (38/50) were benign, 10% (5/50) were borderline and 14% (7/50) were malignant. Surface epithelial tumors were most common about 76% (38/50 cases) followed by germ cell tumors 16% (8/50 cases) and Sex cord-stromal tumors 8% (4/50 cases). On gross examination, among 50 cases, cystic 64% (32/50 cases), solid 16% (8/50 cases), and both cystic and solid areas 20 %.
