In ovarian carcinoma, elevated serum concentrations of the aminoterminal propeptide of type-Ill procollagen are related to the clinical stage of the disease and to the presence of ascites, which contains very high concentrations of the propeptide. In a follow-up of patients with advanced disease, fa
