factors for recurrence. 35 patients were treated with a recurrence of a BOT. FSS was repeated in 11 (36.7%) patients. After FSS, the recurrence rate was 1/11 (9%). After complete surgical staging, 3/24 (12.5%) patients experienced a recurrence. Conclusion Patients with BOT who receive a quality assured treatment have a very low risk of a malignant transformation. After individual consideration, FSS is safe in BOT in early FIGO stages. Patients should be counseled about a higher risk of recurrence in cases of FSS, especially in higher FIGO stages. In selected cases, FSS can also be reconsidered in the recurrence situation.
