[Consensus on the treatment and control of border-line tumors of the ovary in Denmark].
In order to obtain an impression of the consensus in Denmark of the treatment and control of border-line tumours of the ovary (BTO), a questionnaire was sent to all 43 departments of gynaecology/obstetrics and of surgery with gynaecology/obstetrics. Thirty-seven (86%) departments replied. The results of the investigation are presented. It is concluded that about 75% (87% in stage Ia and 65% in stage Ib) perform restrictive surgery on younger patients in the early stages. Indication for chemotherapy is found only in patients with more advanced stages. Very few find an indication for radiotherapy. Treatment and control of BTO in Denmark are in agreement with current international principles.
