Zusammenfassung

Borderline Tumoren des Ovars (BOT) stehen klinisch wie morphologisch zwischen den zelltypspezifischen benignen und malignen Ovartumoren. Die Hypothese einer kontinuierlichen Karzinogenese wurde anhand eines Modells zur Genese maligner Ovarialtumoren theoretisch unterstützt. Seine Übertragbarkeit auf die verschiedenen Ovarialmalignomentitäten ist noch nicht abschließend geklärt, dennoch hat das Modell auch relevante Implikationen für das Management von BOT. Betroffen von BOT sind überproportional häufig Frauen im reproduktiven Alter, sodass sich bei der Therapie grundsätzlich die Frage nach einem Fertilitätserhalt stellt. Neben Alter und FIGO-Stadium scheint die Zytoreduktion durch die Primäroperation das entscheidende prognostische Kriterium zu sein, der postoperativ verbliebene Tumorrest ist ein unabhängiger Prognosefaktor. Neben diesen Aspekten wird der Stand in den Bereichen Therapie der BOT und Prognose referiert.

Abstract

Borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) are clinically and morphologically defined as being between cell-specific benign and malignant ovarian tumors. The hypothesis of a continuous carcinogenesis is theoretically supported by a model of the genesis of malignant ovarian tumors. The transferability to various ovarian malignancies has not yet been finally explained but the model also has relevant implications for the management of BOT. Women in child-bearing age are disproportionally more often affected by BOT so that the question of therapy is basically concerned with maintaining fertility. In addition to age and FIGO stage, cytoreduction by the primary operation seems to be the deciding prognostic factor and the residual postoperative tumor mass is an independent prognosis factor. In addition to these aspects the current situation with respect to BOT and prognosis will be discussed.
