    Abstract:
    From 1985 to 1991, 9 patients with endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary were treated and followed at the University of Ancona, Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics. Four patients (44.4%) had Stage I disease, 1 (11.1%) Stage II, 1 (11.1%) Stage III and 3 (33.3%) Stage IV. Six patients (66.6%) had grade 2 of the disease and 3 (33.3%) grade 3. Two of the patients (22.2%) had synchronous endometrial carcinoma while 3 had histologic evidence of endometriosis at the time of presentation. All the patients received treatment of combination of surgery, polychemotherapy, hormone and/or immunotherapy. The overall survival rate after a median follow up of 26.6 months was 66.6%. A high survival (100%) was observed for patients with associated endometriosis.
