RESUMO
The authors assess the potential of conservative treatment in a series of cases of ovarian cancer. Surgical evaluation is essential, in order to confirm that the conditions required for conservative treatment are present. The tumor must be a stage IA tumor, with a low histoprognostic score and small in size. Conservative treatment must be proposed in cases of tumors of potential malignancy and tumors of the sexual cords. It is debateable in epithelial tumors. The question of the necessity of further surgery to remove the genital tract after the desired pregnancies may be debateable in cases of epithelial tumors.
