TLDR
The size of the largest nodal metastasis was not related to the clinical stage or survival, but did correlate with the number of positive nodes, and greater numbers ofpositive nodes were found in stage III than stage IV.About:

Cancer of the Ovary
TL;DR: The clinical features of ovarian cancer and recent advances in postoperative management are described, including bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in selected women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
TL;DR: Urgent progress is needed to develop evidence and consensus-based treatment guidelines for each subgroup, and requires close international cooperation in conducting clinical trials through academic research groups such as the Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup.

Hacker,Fabio Landoni,Sven Ackermann,Elio Campagnutta,Karl Tamussino,Raimund Winter,Antonio Pellegrino,Stefano Greggi,Roberto Angioli,Natalina Manci,Giovanni Scambia,Tiziana Dell'Anna,Roldano Fossati,Irene Floriani,Rita Rossi,Roberto Grassi,Giuseppe Favalli,Francesco Raspagliesi,Diana Giannarelli,Luca Martella,Costantino Mangioni +22 more
TL;DR: Systematic lymphadenectomy improves progression-free but not overall survival in women with optimally debulked advanced ovarian carcinoma, and the percentage of patients requiring blood transfusions was higher in the systematic lymphenectomy arm than in the no-lymphadenectomy arm.

Figo stage, histology, histologic grade, age and race as prognostic factors in determining survival for cancers of the female gynecological system: An analysis of 1973‐87 SEER cases of cancers of the endometrium, cervix, ovary, vulva, and vagina
TL;DR: Analysis of the prognostic impact of FIGO stage, histology, histologic grade, age and race in survival for cancers of the female gynecological were examined and the interaction of factors may be more predictive of outcome than any one factor separately.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, and peritoneum
TL;DR: This review summarizes the genetics, surgical management, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies for epithelial cancers, and the treatment of ovarian germ cell and stromal malignancies.

Metastatic patterns in histologic variants of ovarian cancer. An autopsy study.
TL;DR: The autopsy findings of 428 patients with various histologic types of ovarian cancer were studied to determine if metastatic patterns were different, and this finding supports a hematogenous route of metastasis for ovarian sarcomas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic factors and operative treatment of Stages IB to IIB cervical cancer
TL;DR: Between 1971 and 1985, a total of 325 cases of cervical cancer, Stages IB to IIB, in which operation was performed were evaluated with a view toward prognostic factors and survival rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pelvic lymphadenectomy in operative treatment of ovarian cancer
TL;DR: From the end of 1979 to September, 1985, radical pelvic lymphadenectomy was performed at the Graz Clinic in 123 cases of Stages IA to IV ovarian cancer following maximum debulking procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lymph node metastasis of ovarian cancer: a preliminary survey of 74 cases of lymphadenectomy.
TL;DR: The results indicate that lymphatic metastasis is an exceedingly important route of spreading of this group of malignant diseases and the significance of lymphadenectomy in ovarian cancer is discussed.

16 The effect of chemotherapy on lymph node metastases in ovarian cancer
E. Burghardt,R. Winter +1 more
TL;DR: It cannot be assumed that a cure is possible if disease persists in the lymph nodes after chemotherapy, even if the abdomen has been cleared by radical primary surgery, and cytoreduction should be an integral component of the operative treatment of ovarian cancer.
