Ovary : Cellular Fibroma

Comments:
Treatment: Like conventional fibromas, the treatment of both cellular and mitotically-active fibromas is unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Cellular fibromas are often associated with ovarian surface rupture resulting in extraovarian adhesions and peritoneal implants. As long as both the tumor and the implants appear histologically benign, this is not considered a sign of malignancy and the prognosis remains excellent. Such cases, however, require long-term follow-up due to the possibility of local recurrence, which is usually delayed by several years.
