Popis: | Despite having revolutionized the management of multiple types of gynecologic cancers laparoscopy and robotic surgery have had limited utility in ovarian cancer until recently. The development in medical technology allows surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery (MIS) not only in early ovarian cancer, but also in advanced ovarian cancer. Thus far, most prospective studies showed feasible results of MIS in ovarian cancer. Even with many proven advantages of the MIS, there is no concrete evidence of the disparity in survival rate between laparoscopic, robotic surgery and laparotomy surgery. We reviewed the results of MIS in ovarian cancer thus far and suggest how the gynecologists can apply MIS in ovarian cancer in the future. Until the further prospective studies show solid evidence of safety in the MIS in ovarian cancer, comprehensive discussion about the benefits and risk with the patient and the level of surgical skill of the gynecologist should be considered in determining the type of surgery. |
