Should we worry about obesity in our ovarian cancer patients, too?
- Authors
Sawan, S; Edmondson, RJ
- Abstract
The author discusses the study of Smits and colleagues on the relationship between obesity and ovarian cancer. The author cites the research design used in the paper, which is unusual as it contains a meta analysis along with the case series of the authors. It cites the results of the study, which shows that ovarian cancer surgery is not compromised by obesity.
