Conclusions
Our study showed a 34% rate of discordance between FS and final diagnosis. Given that 5 cases (7%) were of GI origin, intraoperative assessment of the appendix should be performed in all mucinous ovarian tumors.
Highlights
► We examined 73 consecutive cases of mucinous ovarian tumors that had frozen section (FS) at the time of surgery.
► The rate of discordance between FS and final diagnosis was 34%.
► Consideration of appendiceal tumors is important as 7% of all cancers were found to be gastrointestinal in origin.
