[The role of the second-look operation in modern therapy of ovarian carcinoma].
The authors evaluate the results of second look operations of ovarian cancer in a group of 34 women. The second look operation was preceded by intraperitoneal and intravenous chemotherapy. This therapeutic protocol contributed to improvement of therapeutic results. In 50% of thus treated women it proved possible to remove the residual tumour and the survival time was prolonged in 75% of women by 1-3 years. The advantages of this therapeutic procedure are according to the authors in particular reduction of the risk of super-radical primary operations and facilitation of the decision whether to terminate treatment or proceed with it.
