Fifty women gave birth to 62 healthy children following FSS, with 8 percent of them delivered preterm. Only 20 women (9 percent) underwent ART treatment. Overall survival was similar between women treated with FSS and radical surgery.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The ability to become pregnant seems to be preserved with fertility-sparing surgery, a knowledge that is absolutely critical for the advice and treatment given to young women with ovarian borderline tumors,&#8221; Johansen said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fertstert.org\/article\/S0015-0282(20)30696-8\/fulltext\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Abstract\/Full Text<\/a><\/p>\n<p><i><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Copyright \u00a9 2020 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthday.com\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HealthDay<\/a>.
