Background & Objective: The common epithelial ovarian tumors are classified into serous, mucinous, clear cell, endometrioid, the Brenner, mixed, and undifferentiated types. Cytoskeleton intermediate filament composition of ovarian tissues indicates that the cytokeratin and vimentin are observed in ovarian surface epithelium along with the common ovaria...

Ovarian borderline serous tumors are uncommon. Combination of borderline serous adenofibromatous tumor and prominent micro papillary architecture is not previously reported. We report a case of borderline papillary serous adenofibromatous tumor (also called serous adenocarcinofibroma) with extensive micropapillary pattern in a 27 year-old married woman. She was infertile and presented with diff...

the aim of this study was to determine the prognosis and survival for patients with borderlineovarian tumor (bot). a retrospective review of 30 patients with serous andmucinous bot treated at or referred to our institution was performed. fifteenpatients (50%) had serous, and the others had mucinous bot. about 86% of allpatients in both groups were in stage i of the disease. the recurrent diseas...
