Anticancer Res. 2012 Oct;32(10):4517-21.

Abstract

Aim: Hepatic resection has become the standard treatment for patients with primary or metastatic liver malignancies. The aim of our study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of hepatic resection in patients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC).

CONCLUSION:

Our data indicate that complete macroscopical tumor resection remains the strongest predictor of survival in patients with liver metastases from AOC.
