It has been quite clearly established that the majority of borderline ovaria...
متن کاملThe clinical usefulness of DNA aneuploidy in borderline ovarian tumours.
ploidy with a DNA index of 1.9 was detected in only 1 patient. This patient, who had a stage IA serous BOT, is alive without any recurrence after 96 months of observation following TAH/BSO. All the remaining 69 tumours showed diploid DNA content. The coefficient of variation for the diploid peaks ranged from 7.48 to 12.8 (mean 8.67) in diploid histograms despite using a low flow rate. A recent ...

Ultrasound and CT are both widely available and play roles in the initial investigation an...
