## Background: The impact of radical bowel resection with multiple organ resection on the survival if patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma has not been well defined. the authors investigated whether primary cytoreductive surgery including rectosigmoid colon resection would affect the recurrence

## Abstract ## Background Optimal cytoreductive surgery combined with intraoperative hyperthermic chemoperfusion (IHCP) is a therapy that potentially could improve survival in a select group of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to review the results of cytoreduct
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND This study was performed to address patient selection criteria and the role of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCR) in patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) who had relapsed tumors after a progressionβfree interval β©Ύ 3 months. ## METHODS One hundred seventee
Combination chemotherapy with Adriamycin-cyclophosphamide was employed after surgical treatment in 60 women with Stage 111-IV ovarian adenocarcinoma. Of 53 evaluable patients, objective response was noted in 34 of 41 (83%) without prior cytotoxic therapy but in only two of 12 (17%) who had failed a
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) scans of the abdomen and pelvis may predict which patients with ovarian carcinoma can undergo optimal cytoreduction at primary surgery. Previous studies have demonstrated that patients with ovarian carcinoma had optimal cytoreduction rates ranging
