Abstract
We read with interest the article from Braungart and colleagues, discussing management of young females with benign ovarian tumors [1]. This is important and timely, and we agree with the need for clarity in
management of this under-investigated group. As the authors note, published evidence to support decisions is limited, so in certain areas, guidance may have to rely on expert opinion. The authors emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion to optimise management and risk-stratification [1]. They highlight the importance and safety of ovarian-sparing-surgery in benign tumors, to preserve fertility
and avoid long-term effects including premature ovarian failure [1].
