The outcomes of ovarian cancer treatment are better when provided by gynecologic oncologists and in specialized hospitals: a systematic review



Centre for Review and Dissemination - Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects (DARE)

Authors' objectives:

To determine the efficacy of specialised care for patients with ovarian cancer.
Authors' conclusions:The outcome of ovarian cancer was better when treatment was provided in specialised settings (gynecologic oncologists or in specialised hospitals) than that provided in non-specialised settings.

CRD commentary:
"Given the limitations and the lack of reported methodology in the review process, although the results appeared promising the authors conclusion appears to be overstated."
