Abstract:
Borderline ovarian tumors, or tumors of low malignant potential, are neoplasms of good prognosis that affect mostly patients of reproductive age. They account for 15% of all epithelial ovarian neoplasms and they are managed with surgical cytoreduction. Conservative surgery may be considered in patients who desire fertility preservation. Here we report on a patient who presented with vague abdominal symptoms and was diagnosed with large bilateral borderline tumors, of 18 and 15 cm in size. She underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and epiplectomy and received adjuvant chemotherapy. Borderline ovarian tumors are a pathologic entity the gynaecologist should be well acquainted with.

Bending and Torsional Moments
The reaction developed in a structural element when subjected to an external force causes the element to bend. When a structural element bends upwards, it creates compressive normal forces on the top and tensile normal forces on the bottom, resulting in a couple that determines the bending...
