The woman at highest risk for epithelial neoplasia of the ovary is a nulliparous, caucasian woman of northern European descent residing in an industrialized country. She is at even higher risk if her sister, mother, maternal aunt or grandmother have had carcinomas of the breast or ovary or if she herself has had a previous carcinoma of the breast. The roles of hormonal drugs and other environmental chemical compounds in the etiology of this form of cancer are not clear but are the subjects of many ongoing investigations.
卵巢上皮性肿瘤风险最高的女性是未生育的、具有北欧血统的白种女性，居住在工业化国家。如果她的姐妹、母亲、姨妈或祖母曾患乳腺癌或卵巢癌，或者她本人曾患乳腺癌，那么她的风险会更高。激素药物和其他环境化合物在这种癌症病因中的作用尚不清楚，但它们是许多正在进行的研究的主题。
