Borderline ovarian tumors.
Borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) represent a small subset of epithelial ovarian cancers that were first described more than 70 years ago. Recognized in a systematic way in only the last three decades, BOTs occur most often in women in their reproductive years but are associated with an excellent long-term prognosis. The management of these tumors is primarily surgical, with the role of medical therapy a topic of ongoing research and debate.
