Objective: To assess the impact of lymphadenectomy on the survival of patients with stage I ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC).
Methods: The records of 93 patients with stage I OCCC treated between January 2012 and December 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. The relationships between survival outcomes and the number and region of removed lymph nodes (LNs) were assessed, and the independent prognostic factors were analyzed.

There are debates on the management of immature ovarian teratoma and its recurrence. This study aimed to report the incidence of pelvic masses after surgery for immature ovarian teratoma and to identify prognostic factors of disease-free survival after surgery, discussing aspects of primary treatment and postoperative management. Data on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with immature teratomas were collected.

Limited data are available about systematic lymphadenectomy during fertility-sparing surgery (FSS) in patients with eEOC.
Methods: The medical records of 38 patients with FIGO stage I EOC and below 40 years who underwent FSS at our hospital between January 2003 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed.
