title: Successful pregnancy after conservative surgery for ovarian papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma of low malignant potential.
abstract: Conservative surgery was performed on a 28-year-old patient with an ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma of low malignant potential who became pregnant one year later. The good prognosis of these tumours makes conservative surgical management the treatment of choice when preservation of child-bearing potential is deemed appropriate.
