Because of its histological and embryological complex development, the ovary can be the source of a large variety of tumors, ovarian cancer being the fifth female neoplasia as a frequency. A major clinical significance is that the ovarian tumor is asymptomatic for a long period of time.Ovarian proliferative pathology raises a number of important issues from both theoretical and practical point of view. The change in the therapeutic attitude, especially in the areas of surgery and chemotherapy, has led in the last decades to an improvement in the survival rate. Our retrospective study included the analysis of 64 patients with ovarian cancer. Ovarian neoplasms should have a multidisciplinary approache with individualized treatment for each patient. The long-term survival remains, however, the detection of the tumor at an early stage, the undetectment in the initial stages leading to a survival rate of 5 years less than 20%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
