About this trial
Involvement of the infundibulopelvic ligament in ovarian cancer may be associated with decreased survival and related to paraaortic lymph node metastasis
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
◦ Patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, including high- and low-grade serous, high- and low-grade endometrioid, mucinous (expansile and infiltrative types), and carcinosarcoma.
FIGO 2014 stage IA-IVB.
Patients undergoing primary surgery or interval surgery after 3-4 or 6 cycles of chemtherapy
Patients with no residual disease after surgery.
Disqualifiers
◦ Patients without epithelial ovarian cancer.
Patients with ECOG 2-4.
Patients who do not consent to participate in the study.
Patients who did not undergo complete staging surgery (including hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy, and omentectomy) or with residual disease after cytoreductive surgery.
Trial population
Patients with FIGO stage IA-IVB epithelial ovarian cancer who undergoing surgery at our center.
