Treatment Surgical removal of the affected ovary is the most common treatment -- and usually all the treatment that is necessary. That's because more than 75% of these tumors are found early (grade I) and in only one ovary. [verywell.com]

The prognosis is generally good as the tumour tends to grow slowly and usually is benign: 25% are malignant. [en.wikipedia.org]

Prognosis In general, the prognosis (long-term outlook) and chances for a cure depend upon the stage and grade of the tumor. By definition, all tumors that have spread beyond the ovary are considered malignant (or cancerous). [verywell.com]
