Article Title: | Major hepatectomy at interval debulking for stage IV ovarian carcinoma: A case report |
Abstract: | Background. Previous studies have reported the results of hepatic resection for metastatic ovarian cancer at the time of primary cytoreductive surgery and at the time of recurrence. Case. We present the first case of major hepatic resection performed at the time of interval cytoreduction for metastatic ovarian carcinoma. Conclusion. Interval debulking with hepatic resection may be a promising approach for patients left with bulky parenchymal liver metastasis after primary cytoreductive surgery. © 2002 Elsevier Science (USA). |
