Borderline ovarian serous tumors are a rare distinct category of epithelial ovarian tumors, distinguished from both benign and invasive ovarian tumors. As borderline ovarian cysts are only a small part of the gynecological conditions of children, the therapeutic approach to this special type of tumor has not been standardized yet. Despite the technological breakthroughs that we have witnessed lately, the positive diagnosis of ovarian tumors is possible only by surgery and histopathological examination, and laparoscopic surgery has become the golden standard in the management of this condition. The aim of this case report is to demonstrate a very good long-term evolution after minimal invasive treatment and minimal damage to the reproductive apparatus in children with borderline ovarian tumors. The case reported in this paper is that of a 17-year-old adolescent with borderline serous papilliferous cystadenoma diagnosed by ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scanning, whose CA-125 biomarker had normal values. As the purpose was to preserve the patient's reproductive function, we chose to remove and excise the cyst by laparoscopic surgery, without removing the ovaries. The patient's subsequent evolution was positive and at 19-year-old, she gave natural birth to a healthy baby girl. Nevertheless, as relapses are possible after many years, the patient's long-term monitoring is necessary. |
