“…These results are similar to data previously reported by Wolfe et al (2) who found that some units involved in their study were only performing one procedure per year. Despite recommendations for surgical practice (1,12,13) and staging, it was obvious that at the time of our study, there was a wide variation in practice. In addition, recording of the surgical stage and the amount of residual disease was inadequate that was similar to previous data (14) .…”

The objective of the study was to review referral practice, overall management, and survival in women with suspected ovarian cancer in Wales. This study was done prior to introduction of cancer management guidelines in the region. A confidential study questionnaire was sent to 20 participating hospitals. Data on 287 consecutive women with suspected ovarian cancer were collected, of which 250 women underwent primary laparotomy. Information was obtained on referral pattern, preoperative investigations, place of primary surgery, specialty of the primary surgeon, surgical parameters recorded at the time of operation, a final overall stage, adjuvant treatment, and survival outcome. There was a wide variation in referral practice and management of ovarian cancer in Wales. Stage of the disease, attempt at optimal debulking, residual disease, management by a cancer centre multidisciplinary team, and platinum-based chemotherapy were associated with improved overall survival and progression-free survival. More women were alive if managed in the cancer centre at 1 and 3 year after diagnosis (P = 0.022). This study has highlighted the acute issue of the standards of clinical care in the area of ovarian cancer management and will emphasize the implementation of better care pathways for ovarian cancers.

“…La fréquence des actes de chirurgie complète semble avoir augmentée au cours du temps et principalement à partir de 1989, témoignant de l'évolution des techniques chirurgicales mais aussi de l'application des recommandations officielles sur la chirurgie d'exérèse tumorale maximale et sur la stadification complète abdominopelvienne [30]. Cet effort de stadification anatomoclinique a probablement permis de mieux guider les traitements médicaux adjuvants et donc d'avoir un impact bénéfique sur la survie des patientes.…”
