ObjectiveThe aims of this study were to evaluate the rate of recurrences in borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) with microinvasion and to evaluate the possibility to enlarge fertility-sparing surgery in this group of patients.MethodsBetween 1985 and 2010, 209 patients with BOTs were retrospectively divided into 2 groups: group 1 consisted of 28 women with microinvasive BOTs; group 2 consisted of 181 with BOTs without microinvasion. All of the patients were submitted to surgical treatment: in group 1, 10 patients underwent cystectomy (CYS), 11 patients underwent monolateral salpingo-oophorectomy (MSO), and 7 patients underwent bilateral oophorectomy with or without total hysterectomy (BSO); in group 2, 34 patients underwent CYS, 58 patients underwent MSO, and 89 patients underwent BSO. Specific prognostic factors such as stage, surgical approach, intraoperative spillage, histology, exophytic tumor growth, and endosalpingiosis were analyzed. Tumor recurrence rate and overall and disease-free survivals were evaluated.ResultsAfter a mean follow-up of 53 months, relapses occurred in 21.4% of the cases in group 1 and in 12.7% of the cases in group 2 (P = 0.21). The prognostic factors had no significant differences in the 2 groups. Relapses after CYS, MSO, and BSO were observed in 30%, 27.3%, and 0%, respectively, in group 1 and in 29.4%, 12.1%, and 6.7%, respectively, in group 2. Progression-free survival was significantly longer in BOTs compared to microinvasive BOTs (P = 0.041), but overall survival did not differ.ConclusionsAlthough exploratory, our data suggest that BOTs with microinvasion present earlier relapses, but overall incidence of relapses and overall survival do not differ significantly from BOTs without microinvasion. Fertility-sparing surgery is feasible in this group of patients, but strict follow-up has to be suggested.

Introduction:To evaluate the oncological safety and reproductive outcomes of patients with borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) treated with fertility-sparing surgery.Methods:Patients with BOTs who underwent radical or fertility-sparing surgery between 1997 and 2009 were identified from an institutional database. The recurrence rates were compared between the 2 surgery groups. To compare the reproductive outcomes, all patients who underwent fertility-sparing surgery were interviewed by telephone.Results:One hundred forty-three patients underwent radical surgery, and 155 patients underwent fertility-sparing surgery. After a median interval of 38 months from the initial surgery (range, 10-77 months), 19 patients had a recurrence. The recurrence rate was similar in the radical and fertility-sparing surgery groups (4.9% and 7.7%, respectively;P= 0.280). In the fertility-sparing surgery group, however, the main site of recurrence was the remaining ovary that was successfully salvaged with a second round of fertility-sparing surgery. Of 51 patients who attempted to conceive, 45 patients (88.2%) were successful and resulted in 54 term deliveries.Conclusions:Fertility-sparing surgery for BOTs is safe and can result in future pregnancies, suggesting that such surgery should be considered for young patients who desire preservation of fertility.
