Management of ovarian tumors
Journal Title: Journal of Medical and Scientific Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Border line ovarian tumors are one of the common asymptomatic tumors in young women. They are mostly diagnosed at the time of routine examination. The management of tumor is crucial, since fertility preservation is a challenge in this age group. A fine balance needs to be drawn between maximal removal of tumour and preserving fertility till her reproductive needs are fulfilled. Therefore a clear idea for management will help in individual management. Surgery is the treatment of choice, but fertility preservation with close 3-6 monthly follow up is appropriate till woman completes her family.
