Fertility sparing surgery for malignant ovarian sex-cord stromal tumors: long-term obstetric and oncologic outcomes
Key Points
Fertility sparing surgery provides promising oncological outcomes for patients with malignant ovarian tumors, paired with favorable reproductive outcomes.
The long-term analysis of oncological outcomes shows that patients treated with fertility sparing surgery maintain a low risk of tumor recurrence.
Reproductive outcomes indicate many patients achieve successful pregnancies post-fertility sparing surgery, contributing positively to their quality of life.
This evaluation supports the viability of fertility sparing surgery in managing malignant ovarian tumors while addressing the reproductive desires of patients.
