Ovarian neoplasms have different cell origin and have various histopathologies. Increased mortality in ovarian malignancies is due to late presentation at advanced stage. During the period of 5 years (June 2011 to June 2016), 156 ovarian neoplasms were studied at Narayana Medical College. Out of them 143 were benign and 13 were malignant. Surface epithelial tumors (84.62%) were more common and next common were the germ cell tumors (10.9%). Among the malignant tumors, serous cystadenocarcinomas were more common. Benign tumors were common in 31-40 years of age group (30.07%) and malignant tumors were seen more in 41-50 years of age group (38.46%). High number of benign neoplasms constituted ovarian neoplasms in our study. Key words: Ovarian neoplasms, benign, epithelial tumors
