“…Both Ki-67 expression and CA-125 level were higher in Type II than in the Type I cancer group, because the patients with Type II cancer were hospitalized with a more advanced FIGO stage than those in the Type I group. Similar findings have also been reported in recently published literature [20].…”

“…Type I and Type II OEC resemble two distinct ovarian cancer subtypes based on molecular characteristics [3]. The significance of distinguishing the two OEC subtypes is that Type I has different biological behaviors, treatment responses, and gene mutations from Type II [5], and Type II ovarian cancer (most being high-grade serous ovarian cancer) account for more than 70% of all ovarian cancer deaths [5, 1820]. Considering the recent treatment strategy advancements [21–23], a minimally invasive approach and fertility-sparing approaches are necessary for patients with BOT tumors and patients of reproductive age with gynecological cancers [24, 25].…”

“…20,21 Mukhtar and colleagues 22 reported that MDCT can differentiate benign and malignant ovarian lesions with 95.6% sensitivity, 97.3% specificity, 93.5% NPV, 97.3% PPV, and 96.8% overall diagnostic accuracy. In addition, Liu and colleagues 23 reported that the combination of tumour size, morphology, mural nodule, and enhancement degrees can help differentiate type I (low-grade) and type II (highgrade) epithelial ovarian cancer with 61.36% sensitivity, 87.5% specificity, 55.3% negative predictive value, 90% positive predictive value, and 0.808 AUC (p<0.05); however, the inability to detect small volume extra-ovarian disease on bowel serosa, mesentery, and peritoneum along with the hazards of ionising irradiation are some of the limitations of MDCT. 24,25 DECT can be used in patients with pelvic masses to differentiate malignant OTs from benign OTs as suggested by Benveniste et al from their preliminary single-institution experience.…”

“…Ovarian BOT is a type of low-potential epithelial tumor with a relatively good prognosis after treatment. Sometimes, it is di cult to discriminate BOTs from ovarian malignancies solely on imaging information due to some overlapping imaging ndings between the two (22). Our current results showed that the 3D MR-based radiomics signatures derived from sagittal fs-T2WI yielded an ACC of 100% in differentiating ovarian malignancies from BOTs and may help clinicians make a correct diagnosis before surgery.…”
