Impact of resection for ovarian metastases from colorectal cancer and clinicopathologic analysis: A multicenter retrospective study in Japan.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The aim of this study was to clarify the significance of resection of ovarian metastases from colorectal cancer and to identify the clinicopathologic characteristics.

Methods

In this multicenter retrospective study, we evaluated data on ovarian metastases from colorectal cancer obtained from patients at 20 centers in Japan between 2000 and 2014. We examined the impact of resection on the prognosis of patients with ovarian metastases and examined prognostic factors.

Results

The study included 296 patients with ovarian metastasis. The 3-y overall survival rate was 68.6% for solitary ovarian metastases. In all cases of this cohort, the 3-y overall survival rates after curative resection, noncurative resection, and nonresection were 65.9%, 31.8%, and 6.1%, respectivel
