ABSTRACT: This study aims to analyze the clinical characteristics and discuss appropriate surgical strategy of ovarian fibroma/fibrothecoma in premenopausal women. A review of the patients' medical records was undertaken at Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University, from January 2015 to December 2023. Altogether, 286 cases were identified. The mean age was 47.73 years (14-89 years) and premenopausal women accounted for 51.40% (147/286). The proportion of patients appeared similar across all age decades from 21 to 70. Of these patients, 204 (71.33%) underwent surgeries due to the presence of a pelvic mass with a mean diameter of 6.25 cm (1.2-37 cm). The tumor size in premenopausal women (n = 81) was significantly smaller than that in postmenopausal women (n = 123; 4.78 cm vs
