Ovarian carcinoma of low malignant potential, infertility, and induction of ovulation--is there a link?
Abstract
Three cases of ovarian carcinoma of low malignant potential associated with infertility and ovulation induction are reported. The natural history of ovarian epithelial tumors is possibly being interrupted with earlier intervention and diagnosis in patients who may have presented 10 to 15 years later with disseminated ovarian carcinoma.
