The clinical and pathological analysis of ovarian borderline serous papillary Epithelioma : a report of six cases

Abstract EN

Introduction : Ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma is a rare epithelial ovarian tumor between adenoma and carcinoma.

This study was carried out to compare six cases of ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma.

Case Presentation : This retrospective study was conducted on 6 patients with ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma regarding clinical symptoms, auxiliary examination, treatment process, and prognosis.

These six patients were diagnosed with the disease from January 2010 to June 2013 in the People’s hospital of three Gorges university, Yichang, Hubei, China.

Two patients were diagnosed with ovarian surface serous papillary epithelioma.

One patient was diagnosed with ovarian surface serous papillary epithelioma transferred to bilateral fallopian tubes.

One patient was diagnosed with ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma while parts of tissues had become cancerous.

One patient was diagnosed with ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma with pelvic lymph node metastasis, which had transferred to bilateral fallopian tubes, omentum majus, and epityphlon.

One patient was diagnosed with ovarian surface serous papillary epithelioma with epithelial hyperplasia.

All the six patients received surgical resection.

Conclusions: We recommend ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma evaluation for patients as preoperative observations, intraoperative careful exploration, and pathological diagnosis in order to find and timely treat ovarian borderline serous papillary epithelioma patients.
