Pelvic irradiation for stage II ovarian carcinoma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Over a 20-year period, 34 patients with FIGO stage II ovarian carcinoma were treated with postoperative pelvic irradiation at the University of Michigan. Complications of radiation treatment were minimal. The overall actuarial disease-free 5-year survival was 53%. This was not significantly different for substages IIA, IIB, or IIC. Patients with well-differentiated tumors had a significantly better survival than patients with moderate or poorly differentiated tumors (P less than 0.05). The implications for managing stage II ovarian carcinoma are discussed.

Although the main patterns of its spreading are represented by peritoneal, lymphatic or hematogenous route, local recurrences might also be seen. Whenever pelvic recurrence develops, complete resections based on the ultraradical principles appli...
