Ovarian serous borderline tumors (SBTs) are characterized by good prognosis and occasional late recurrence. The 5-year and 10-year survival rates are all more than 90%. But traditionally patients with SBTs used to be treated with bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy and postoperative chemotherapy. A high proportion of SBTs occurred in young patients. The traditional treatment with complete excision of reproductive organs seemed to be too aggressive for young patients. It is imperative that conservative surgical procedures with fertility sparing should be employed to them. In this paper the literatures in regard to the final outcome of the conservative surgical therapy for SBTs were reviewed and the appropriate extent of conservative surgical procedures was discussed in detail.
