Resumen
MARTINEZ-ROSALES, Orlando; SOLARANA-ORTIZ, Joaquín Alejandro y ANGELES-RITCHIE, Aniusky de los. Giant ovarian mucinous borderline cystoadenoma, in a posmenopausic patient. AMC [online]. 2022, vol.26 Epub 10-Feb-2022. ISSN 1025-0255.
Introduction:
Ovarian tumors are not as frequent as those of the uterus and breast. They constitute the third group of benign and malignant tumors in women. Border cystadenoma has clinicopathologic intermediate features between those of benign and malignant tumors.
Objective:
To describe the successful therapeutic management of a case of a postmenopausal woman with borderline mucus cystadenoma of ovary.
Case report:
A hypertensive and diabetic patient, operated in the Lucia Iñiguez Landín Clinical Surgical Hospital in Holguin province, 54-year-old postmenopausal, with a giant tumor of the left ovary and satisfactory clinical-surgical evolution.
Conclusions:
Border mucinous cystadenoma is usually limited to the ovary at the time of diagnosis, without capsular or peritoneal invasion. The risk of malignant degeneration is highly variable and is related to age. For its treatment, oophorectomy, omentectomy and biopsy of the contralateral ovary, retroperitoneal nodes, visible peritoneal nodules and cytology of peritoneal fluid are recommended.
