Abstract

The paper describes a range of embryo proteins, the potential markers for ovarian tumors. More than 10 new embryo proteins have been tested; however, a strictly specific protein has not been found to diagnose ovarian tumors. Serum oncoovarian -1-globulin is shown to remain the most promising marker today. Noteworthy are the specific features of evolution and the mechanism of the early extent of a tumor process. The role of pregnancy in preventing ovarian tumors is considered. An attempt has been made to understand the causes of the disease and the mechanisms of its development.
