Abstract

The pathological diagnosis of a patient who was operated on for ovarian cancer was serous borderline tumor of the ovary. At the same time, pathological examination of one of the paraaortic lymph nodes revealed borderline tumor of the lymph node. We also searched the literature associated with this case.
