Abstract
In our study, a lower cut-off for younger women seemed better suited to discriminate borderline tumours. In practice, the ADNEX score associated with the peroperative laparoscopic examination seems to be the best way to use the ADNEX model. Our study showed that the ADNEX model allows a good predictability of malignant ovarian tumours. The predictability becomes less satisfying for the youngest patients. A cut-off malignity value allowing surgical treatment of patients in a specialised facility was reached for two age groups: a cut-off of 5% for women under 42 years old and a cut-off of 10% for women over 43 years old.
