Borderline tumorsBorderline: Neither clinically benign nor malignantRecurrence is common, but death is uncommon Borderline: Neither morphologically benign nor malignantArchitectural complexity without malignant cytologic features & NO invasionBorderline tumorsSerous BTs and seromucinous BTs are both pathologically borderline and clinically borderline.
Borderline tumorsSerous BTs and seromucinous BTs are both histopathologically borderline and clinically borderline.
Gastrointestinal mucinous, endometrioid & transitional BTs are only pathologically borderlineThey are clinically BENIGN.Serous LMP

Low Grade Serous CarcinomaKRASBRAFCourtesy: Rob Soslow, MSKCCCystadenoma15This is an overview of serous carcinogenesis. As you can see, in familial cases, BRCA-1 mutations give rise to dysplastic inclusion cysts. Full fledged carcinomas arise after the acquisition of p53 mutations. Sporadic high grade cancers arise by a similar mechanism, but BRCA-1 mutation per se is not seen. Notice now that the low grade carcinomas do not feature in the familial arm of this illustration. They are thought to arise almost exclusively in the sporadic setting. BRAF or KRAS mutations lead to development of serous borderline tumors, which become proliferative (ie micropapillary) and then invasive. The molecular alterations leading to proliferation in a borderline tumor and then invasion are not well understood.Low grade serous carcinoma: pathogenesis

Serous LMP
Bilaterality common in Serous = Loss of Fertility
Significance ofMicropapillary (MP) ArchitectureAssociated with invasive implantsMore aggressive because of invasive implantsRecur more frequently
More bilateral (70% vs. 20%)More involve surface (60% vs. 30%)
Implant TerminologyOvarian borderline tumor + peritoneal disease = borderline tumor with implants
Ovarian carcinoma + peritoneal disease = metastatic ovarian carcinomaImplant TerminologyOvarian borderline tumor + noninvasive peritoneal disease = borderline tumor with noninvasive implants
Ovarian borderline tumor + invasive peritoneal disease = low grade serous carcinoma
Significance of Implant TypeNon-invasive implant 10 year survival:95%
Invasive implant 10 year survival:33-50%
Stage III low-grade serous ca 10 yr survival:25-50%No invasion AND no diffuse high-grade cytologic atypia or micropapillary architecture: non-invasive epithelial implant
Fat or muscle invasion: invasive implant

Unstaged SBT+MP = uncertain malignant potential
SBT with non-invasive implants = slow malignant potential
SBT with invasive implants = carcinoma

Mucinous borderline tumors very large technically limits ovarian preservation
Mucinous BT
Mucinous Borderline TumorsMucinous intestinal type virtually always limited to ovary & behaves benignData on endocervical seromucinous type are limited, but benign behavior commonMucinous PMP almost invariably derived from GI tract, usually appendix
57Algorithm for distinguishing primary vs. metastatic mucinous carcinoma(and borderline tumors)Bilateral mucinous carcinomas = metastaticUnilateral mucinous ca & 12 cm = primary ovarian Yemelyanova AV, et al. Am J Surg Pathol. 2008 Metastatic carcinoma may look benign or borderlinePseudomyxoma-associated tumors are notoriousMetastatic pancreatobiliary carcinomas frequently mimic the appearance of primary ovarian tumors
Meriden Z, et al. Am J Surg Pathol. 2011 Feb;35(2):276-88.
Metastatic mucinous carcinoma may look benign or borderlineBilateral in 90% of casesNodularity in 63% and surface involvement in 40% Infiltrative growth pattern in 80%, accompanied by borderline-like and/or cystadenomatous areas in 50% Meriden Z, et al. Am J Surg Pathol. 2011 Feb;35(2):276-88.
Borderline tumors at frozen-sectionWhen and why do you perform staging operations?Detect extra ovarian SURFACE diseaseSerous and seromucinous BT
Concern that the diagnosis will be upgraded to carcinoma on permanent sectionsMicropapillary serous
Ovarian cancer: distinct disease entities: Genotypep53PIK3CAKRAS/BRAFHigh-Grade Serous+++ +-Low-Grade Serous- - ++Endometrioid- +++ Clear cell-+++-Mucinous-- KRAS+++ SummarySerous BT Prognosis depends on surgery, stage, implant type, and micropapillary architecture
Tumors with NON-invasive implants may recur as invasive implants/low-grade serous carcinoma
Tumors with invasive implants are similar to low-grade serous carcinoma
SummaryLow-grade serous carcinomas are clinically, biologically and morphologically distinct from High-Grade serous carcinoma
Many LG serous ca might represent progression from SBT and SBT with micropapillary features
They rarely progress to a high-grade neoplasm
For mucinous ovarian neoplasms always rule out a metastasis from other GI primary
