  • Title: [Time interval between ovarian cancer surgery and chemotherapy--secondary publication?].
    Author: Larsen EP, Blaakaer J.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2009 Nov 02; 171(45):3265-8. PubMed ID: 19916194.
    Abstract:
    Worldwide, much effort goes into performing optimal surgery in treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). However, the optimal timing (TI) of postoperative chemotherapy for ovarian cancer remains poorly defined. The relevant literature comprises seven studies with varying characteristics and includes different prognostic factors. The general supposition is that the time interval does not have a prognostic influence, but experimental studies have shown that it does affect cancer prognosis.
