Abstract: Objective To explore the clinical prognosis and fertility outcomes in patients with borderline ovarian tumors(BOT)who underwent fertility-sparing surgery(FSS). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on BOT patients who received FSS in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University during Jan. 2009 and Dec. 2019. Risk factors associated with disease free survival(DFS)were determined with univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. Risk factors related to postoperative fertility outcomes were assessed with univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 167 BOT patients were included and followed up for a median of 56(range 2-143)months, during which 25 patients(15.0%)had recurrence. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed bilateral tumor(HR=3.908, 95%CI: 1.751-8.721, P=0.001)was related to DFS. Among the 72 patients with pregnancy intention, 39(54.2%)had pregnancy, 37 gave birth successfully, and 2 terminated pregnancy. Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that mucinous tumor(OR=3.279, 95%CI: 1.104-9.739, P=0.032)and laparoscopic surgery(OR=4.199, 95%CI: 1.462-12.058, P=0.008)were associated with successful pregnancy after FSS. Conclusion BOT patients undergoing FSS have a favorable prognosis outcome; bilateral tumors are correlated with poorer DFS; the pathological type and surgical approach may affect the postoperative fertility outcomes.
