| Popis: | Accurate surgical staging is critical to the management of early ovarian cancers. A patient with squamous cell carcinoma arising from a mature cystic teratoma was found to have paraaortic nodal metastasis as her only evidence of extraovarian disease. Extended field radiation therapy to the pelvis and paraaortic nodes with concomitant cisplatin and adjuvant chemotherapy failed to control her disease. Inadequate surgical staging may explain the recurrences in apparent stage I disease. |
