## 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
## BACKGROUND. The recurrence rate of ovarian carcinoma is high even when a second-look laparotomy (SLL) is negative. In the current study, the accuracy of peritoneal cytology as an evaluation method of SLL was examined. ## METHODS. The positive SLL rate and the diagnostic accuracy of peritonea
