December 2024
Northern Gynaecology Oncology Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead, UK.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the management of advanced ovarian cancer, highlighting the gold standard of complete removal of visible tumors, and exploring the implications of delayed cytoreductive surgery for patients who cannot undergo initial or interval surgery.
- It is a retrospective analysis of patients with stage IIIC or higher ovarian cancer at the Northern Gynaecological Oncology Centre over six years, comparing survival outcomes between two groups: those who received only chemotherapy and those who had delayed surgery after six cycles.
- Of the 89 patients evaluated, most completed six cycles of chemotherapy without surgery, while a smaller group underwent delayed surgery, suggesting a potential benefit from this approach in specific cases where initial surgery was not feasible.
