Spectrum of Surgico-Pathological Factors and Lymph Node Metastasis among Epithelial Ovarian Cancers: Experience of a Single Tertiary Care Institution from India.

ABSTRACT: Introduction  Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is one of the leading causes of mortality among women worldwide. The present study aimed to estimate the frequency of various histopathological types, clinical and surgico-pathological factors, and spectrum of lymph node (LN) metastasis in early and advanced EOC. Material and Methods  Women with EOCs who underwent cytoreductive surgery (CRS) between January 2019 and May 2022 were included. The distribution of Clinico-demographic parameters, histological type, stage, and LN metastasis were analyzed. Results  A total of 101 women with EOCs underwent CRS, out of which 5 (4.95%) with coexistent endometrial cancer were excluded ( N  = 96). Fifty women (52%) underwent primary CRS and 46 (48%) women underwent interval CRS.
