- Abstract:
- OBJECTIVE: The present study reviews our 5-year results with extensive, multivisceral cytoreduction in patients with FIGO stages IIIC and IV ovarian cancer. METHODS: During the five-year period from January 1995 to December 1999, 101 patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer FIGO stages IIIC and IV had extensive multivisceral cytoreductive surgery at our department. Patients' history, surgery data, staging, recurrence and survival data were abstracted from the patients' records. RESULTS: Eighty-four (83%) patients had no gross residual disease after the complete surgical procedure. Mean follow-up was 46 months (range, 1-130). Eight patients died within 6 months postoperatively. Seventy-six of our one hundred one patients (75%) had disease progression or recurrence after a mean of 28 months (range, 4-110). Seventeen (17%) patients are alive without disease. Median survival was 47 months and five-year survival was 33% for all 101 patients. CONCLUSION: This series indicates that in the majority of patients with advanced ovarian cancer, primary surgery can lead to complete gross cytoreduction with substantial subsequent rates of disease-free and overall survival.
