One and a half years later she presented with a pelvic recurrence, despite 6 months triptoreline treatment. The retroperitoneal tumour required surgery, biopsies and bilateral adnexectomy by laparoscopy were carried out. [elsevier.es]

In spite of being a benign tumor, its behaviour could be considered as malignant because it can extend by intracava and intra- cardiac way, although the prognosis is favourable. [semanticscholar.org]
