Context: Ovarian tumours are known to be diverse biologically, varying from non-malignant to malignant tumours having implication on course of the management and prognosis. To address the paucity of such study on ovarian neoplasm from our region of West Bengal, we planned and executed this study. The aim of the study was to analyse the distribution of various ovarian tumours and classify them according to the biological behaviour, age, laterality, and mode of the presentation. Setting and Design: It was a retrospective study done in a tertiary care center of Kolkata, India. Methodology: A retrospective data of 4 years comprising 84 cases were included in the study from January 2016 to December 2019. All the slides were retrieved from the archives and re-evaluated and cross-checked with patients' clinical history, demographic, and macroscopic findings. Results: Out of these 84 tumours, maximum cases were of surface epithelial neoplasms (69%) followed by germ cell tumours (26.1%). Age interval of 19-40 years accounted for the highest number of individuals with equal predominance of both sites of the ovary. Serous cyst adenocarcinoma was the most common malignant tumour. Conclusion: Histological examination remains the mainstay in the early diagnosis of ovarian tumours and facilitates timely appropriate management of patients, and hence, reduces overall mortality in women.
