Worth noting:

Finally, as it is known that patients with “high risk”
early stage ovarian cancer have a 30% to 50% chance of
experiencing recurrence of the disease process, and those
recurrences are largely within the peritoneal cavity, it is
perhaps reasonable to consider delivering some, or perhaps
all, of a planned adjuvant chemotherapy approach via the
intraperitoneal route.
