title: [The value of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (cis-platinum) CDDP in the treatment of stage III and IV cancers of the ovary (author's transl)].
abstract: Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum is remarkably useful in stage III and IV cancers of the ovary. It should therefore be added to the armamentarium of chemotherapeutic substances used up till now. This effectiveness adds extra indication to the use of chemotherapy as a first treatment for stage III cancers of the ovary after the lesions have been reduced as far as possible by surgery.
