[Laparoscopic cytoreductive surgery for ovarian carcinoma: report of 4 cases].
Four cases of ovarian carcinoma treated with cytoreductive surgery under laparoscopy from October 2002 to June 2003 were reported. According to our preliminary experience, laparoscopy played an important role in diagnosis, staging and follow-up of ovarian carcinoma, and in comparison with conventional laparotomy, laparoscopic cytoreductive surgery may produce similar effect in the treatment of early-stage carcinoma.
