[New aspects of effusion cytology in borderline ovarian cancer].
The diagnosis of a case of ovarian borderline carcinoma with unspecific clinical and laboratory results finally made an explorative laparotomy necessary. The cytology of ascites and pleural effusion was in contrast to the "typical" findings of this entity, showing many single cells and small cloverleaf-like complexes. The morphological and immunological findings are discussed.
