The author reports epidemiological and clinical data on 739 patients with benign epithelial ovarian tumors of various histotypes. Serous cystadenomas were found in 46%, mucinous--in 25.3%, endometroid--in 20%, mixed epithelial--in 6.7%, the Brenner tumor--in 2.02%. Benign ovarian tumors are more frequently observed at the age from 31 to 60. The patients show the tendency to the late menstrual cycle and reduced reproductive function. The clinical picture of the lesion is described.
