ABSTRACT

Ovarian tumors of low malignant potential or "borderline" originate from the epithelium of this body and they have an intermediate biological behavior between malignant and benign ovarian lesions. This study aims to deepen the diagnosis and therapeutic management of this uncommon nosological condition. A clinical case is presented here. This patient was treated at the Department of General Surgery, at Leopoldito Martinez General Teaching Hospital in San José de las Lajas, Mayabeque province. No pathological signs were identified. Vulva and vagina had no alterations. The diagnosis was established by histopathological examination and surgical treatment was radical.
