I googled borderline ovarian mucinous cystic adenoma on Wikipedia. I am concerned that one sentence says that borderline cases has a 10 year survival rate of 60%. Now I am confused cos I thought my GP meant that they were basically non-cancerous, whereas wikipedia intimates they are a form of ovarian cancer.
Could you advise me?

This is a decision made by a Pathologist on the basis of borderline grading...yes, your tumour is regarded as "benign" because it has a 10 year survival of 99.5%..........can't truly call it benign as it does not have a 100% survival.
Did not want to mention it on yesterday's thread as i would have been accused of "p1ssing on the parade."
Your tumour, depending upon it 's "borderline grading", is as benign as an "borderline" tumour can be.
Does that help salla?
