Article Synopsis
- Mucinous borderline ovarian tumors (MBOTs) generally have a low chance of recurrence and a favorable outlook, although some can progress to mucinous ovarian carcinomas (MOCs).
- A specific case is discussed where an MBOT recurred as an invasive MOC within three years.
- Whole-exome sequencing revealed similar genetic mutations in both the original MBOT and the recurrent MOC, with the latter showing a higher burden of copy number alterations, suggesting that these genetic changes may drive the progression from MBOT to MOC.
