[Epithelial cancer of the ovary in adults: prognostic and therapeutic study of 95 cases].
The authors report 95 cases of ovarian carcinoma treated between 1st January 1975 and December 1986 in the department of gynecology and radiotherapy of hospital Bretonneau in Tours. The overall actuarial 5-year survival was 37.5%, for stage I 100%, stage II 51%, stage III 36%, stage IV 5%, grade I 88%, grade II 51%, grade III 18%. The authors stress the prognostic importance of histologic grade and the bad prognosis of small cell ovarian carcinoma with hypercalcemia. The authors propose a therapeutic attitude based on the results and a review of the literature.
