- Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of mortality by gynecologic cancer. Surgery and chemotherapy are the cornerstones of the treatment. The objective of surgery is complete resection of macroscopic lesions. Surgery can be proposed in an upfront situation or after some cycles of chemotherapy. Selection of patients is the only remaining matter of debate. Hospitals that treat these patients and the patient's course seem as important as the quality of the surgeons.
