↵a Serous, n = 158; endometrioid, n = 16; mucinous, n = 14; clear cell, n = 14; other epithelial, n = 13; epithelial cancers of unknown morphology, n = 69.
↵b Serous, n = 16; endometrioid, n = 4; mucinous, n = 8; clear cell, n = 3, other epithelial, n = 4; epithelial cancers of unknown morphology, n = 4. P-values are derived from Fisher’s exact test for independence. CA125 = cancer antigen 125. NOS = not otherwise specified, that is, could not be classified as epithelial or non-epithelial based on the information in the cancer registry.
