[Borderline Ovarian Tumours: CNGOF Guidelines for Clinical Practice - Diagnosis and Management of Recurrent Borderline Ovarian Tumours].

To provide recommendations for the diagnosis and management of the recurrence of Borderline Ovarian Tumour (BOT). Literature review by consulting Pubmed, Medline and Cochrane databases. In the case of BOT, most of recurrences are a new BOT without invasive contingent (LE2). In the case of bilateral BOT, bilateral cystectomy is associated with a shorter recurrence time compared to unilateral oophorectomy and contralateral cystectomy (LE2). In recurrent serous BOT, cysts are usually fluid thin-walled with vegetation, corresponding in the IOTA classification to a solid unilocular cyst (LE2). A size of the cyst less than 20mm is not a sufficient to eliminate the diagnosis of recurrent serous BOT (LE2). Recurrence of mucinous BOT predominantly appears as multilocular or as solid multilocular cysts (LE4). In the case of ovarian preservation, recurrences are most often observed on the preserved ovary(s) (LE2). Non-invasive peritoneal recurrence after initial radical treatment including bilateral hysterectomy and adnexectomy is possible, mainly in patients initially diagnosed with stage II or III BOT with non-invasive peritoneal implant (LE3). Most BOT recurrences are asymptomatic, but clinical examination may allow diagnosis of recurrence (LE2). The normality of the CA 125 dosage does not rule out the diagnosis of recurrent BOT (LE2). A second conservative treatment in the event of recurrence of BOT entails the risk of new recurrence (LE2) with no impact on survival (LE4). Totalization of the adnexectomy in case of recurrence of BOT reduces the risk of new recurrence (LE2). Conservative treatment does not increase the risk of recurrence with non-invasive peritoneal implants (LE4). Conservative treatment may be offered after a first non-invasive recurrence in young women who wish to preserve their fertility (gradeC). In the absence of infiltrating tumor, chemotherapy is not indicated. The only cases for which chemotherapy can be considered are those for which there is an infiltrative component in addition to TFO.
