Abstract

Ovarian epithelial tumors do not prevent reproduction if they are diagnosed at an early stage. Conservative surgery preserving normal ovarian tissue is necessary for future fertility. We present a case of borderline ovarian tumor detected in a 25-year-old nulliparous woman. Following the conservative surgery of serous borderline tumor she underwent an intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle, and delivered full-term twins with cesarean section.
