Association between endometriosis and risk of histological subtypes of ovarian cancer: a pooled analysis of case–control studies

Short summary

A pooled analysis of 13 studies (7911 invasive ovarian cancer cases) found that a history of endometriosis significantly increases the risk of clear-cell (OR 3.05), low-grade serous (OR 2.11), and endometrioid (OR 2.04) invasive ovarian cancers, but not mucinous or high-grade serous subtypes, or borderline tumors.
