Papillary Cystadenoma of each Ovary. On the left side, the internal pa-pillary projections have grown through the opposite wall and appear on the externalsurface. On the right side, the papillary growths have obliterated all resemblance to acyst, and appear simply as a cauliflower growth in the region of the ovary. Notice themetastasis on the peritoneal surface of the uterus. (Penrose—Diseases of Women.) The characteristics of the pseudomucinoussented and contrasted concisely as follows:Pseudomucinous Cyst.(Cystadenoma Evertens). 1. Contents gelatinous and secretedby the cells lining the cyst—may beany color. 2. Secondary growths consist of gland-like projections outward (evertent)from the cavity into the wall, formingsmall cystic cavities in the wall. and serous cysts may be pre- 3. Lining cells contain pseudomucin,are columnar, with some goblet cells,and are not ciliated. 4. Nearly always unilateral. 5. Rarely rupture spontaneously. 6. Rarely cause peritoneal metastase
