BORDERLINE TUMORS OF OVARY
30% of serous and papillary tumors of
ovary. (15% of all epithelial tumors) 50-
80% are Stage I. 20% metastatic to
abdominal surfaces. 40% bilateral, 50%
occur in women under than 40 years.
Not benign because there is cytologic and
architectural atypia e.g. nuclear
hyperchromasia, enlargement and
pleomorphism, prominent nucleoli and
increased mitotic activity. Can see necrosis,
inflammation and psammoma bodies,
frequent tufting, stratification and complex
papillary architecture.
Not malignant because there is no stromal
invasion. Can be seen in ovaries with
benign and malignant elements. Must get
many cuts in solid areas. Most papillary
structures are inside cystic growth and 25%
are fungating surface excrescences. No
stromal invasion can be found in the
ovaries, despite severe atypia and frequent
mitosis.
Serous Epithelial Carcinoma, LMP, comprise 50%
stratification of epithelial lining of papillae to 5 or
less cell layers
papillary projections or tufts from epithelial
linings of papillae: more is worse
frequently bilateral
Mucinous Epithelial Carcinoma, LMP, comprise
30%
papillary structure + solid thickening 25-50%
epithelial stratification of 2-3 layers
rarely bilateral (5%)
can see pseudomyxoma ovarii

Prognosis
Of 168 cases of Stage I serous LMP tumors from the
series above there were two recurrences, both in the
preserved ovary. Many of higher stages whose tumors
persist were still clinically well, without progression or
symptoms.
Of 234 mucinous LMP tumors in Stage I, 9 recurred
and all died of disease. Approximately 40% of Stage
III mucinous LMP tumors die (pseudomyxoma
peritonei). Usually occurs from ruptured mucinous
ovarian tumor or appendix. Remove both, and all
peritoneal lesions.
Endometrioid and clear cell types are rare, usually
associated with endometriosis, are differentiated from
endometriosis on basis of absence of stroma and
hemorrhage.
