Serous surface papillary borderline ovarian tumors (SSPBOTs) are a rare morphologic variant of serous ovarian tumors that are typically confined to the ovarian surface, while the ovaries themselves tend to appear normal in size and shape. In this report, we describe the findings from five premenopausal women diagnosed with SSPBOTs, in whom ultrasound showed grossly normal ovaries that were partially or wholly covered with irregular solid tumors. In all five cases, histologic examination showed evidence of borderline serous tumors. These findings demonstrate that SSPBOTs can be diagnosed on a preoperative sonographic examination, which could facilitate conservative, fertility-sparing surgery in young women affected by this condition.
浆液性表面乳头状交界性卵巢肿瘤(SSPBOTs)是浆液性卵巢肿瘤的一种罕见形态学变异,通常局限于卵巢表面,而卵巢本身的大小和形状往往看起来正常。在本报告中,我们描述了5例诊断为SSPBOTs的绝经前女性的检查结果,这些患者的超声检查显示卵巢大体正常,但部分或全部被不规则实性肿瘤覆盖。在所有5例病例中,组织学检查均显示有交界性浆液性肿瘤的证据。这些结果表明,SSPBOTs可通过术前超声检查诊断,这有助于为受该疾病影响的年轻女性实施保留生育功能的保守性手术。
