  • A borderline tumor, sometimes called low malignant potential (LMP) tumor, is a distinct but yet heterogeneous group of tumors defined by their histopathology as atypical epithelial proliferation without stromal invasion. (wikipedia.org)
  • It generally refers to such tumors in the ovary (generally specifically called borderline ovarian tumors (BOT)) but borderline tumors may rarely occur at other locations as well. (wikipedia.org)

  • Borderline ovarian tumors represent 10-20% of epithelial ovarian neoplasm's [ 5 ] with an incidence of 1.8-4.8 out of 100.000 women per year [ 6 ] and typically have an excellent prognosis. (intechopen.com)
  • Unlike the invasive carcinomas, borderline ovarian tumors are characterized by cytoplasmic and nuclear atypia, (element of differential diagnosis with benign tumors), absence of stromal invasion, (element of differential diagnosis with malignant tumors), unusual degree of proliferation of the epithelial cells with cellular stratification including remarkable architectural atypia and the formation of papillary protuberances.

Malignancies2
  • A charitable organization founded in 2008 by a community of individuals affected by Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) and related Peritoneal Surface Malignancies (PSM). (cancerindex.org)
  • Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have become accepted treatments for limited-volume peritoneal disease in appendiceal, ovarian, and colorectal malignancies, but there are limitations. (stanford.edu)
Appendix2
  • About two thirds of appendix tumours are carcinoid tumours which develop in hormone-producing cells that are present in many parts of the body, including the appendix. (cancerindex.org)
  • Less common tumours of the appendix include signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma and paraganglioma . (cancerindex.org)
Ultrasonography1
  • Standard imaging tests, including ultrasonography and helical CT scans, are notably insensitive for the detection of peritoneal tumors. (medscape.com)
Rupture2
  • The tumors result from either failure of a dominant mature follicle to rupture or failure of an immature follicle to undergo the normal process of atresia. (medscape.com)
  • The larger varieties are associated with an increased risk of rupture, with resultant pseudomyxoma peritonei. (medscape.com)
Multilocular1
  • The tumors are generally multilocular, and the mucus-containing loculi appear blue through the tense capsules. (medscape.com)
Carcinoma2
  • Primary peritoneal carcinoma usually manifests with abdominal distention and diffuse nonspecific abdominal pain secondary to ascites. (medscape.com)
  • Primary peritoneal carcinoma is treated with tumor debulking followed by chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, or cisplatin. (medscape.com)
Epithelial cells1
  • It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. (lookformedical.com)
Acute2
