Popis: The advanced ovarian cancer usually have bad prognosis. The main methods for treatment of these types of tumors are: primary cytoreductive surgery and platin-based chemotherapy.Our aim was to evaluate our and foreign experience in treatment of advanced ovarian cancer stage III C--IV treated by neodjuvant chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery and patients treated by primary cytoreductive surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. We wanted to research the survival rate, postoperative adverse effects, mortality rate, the size of residual tumor and the metastases in these patients.We researched for 10 years period--50 patients treated by primary cytoreductive surgery and 50 patients treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy.The postoperative adverse effects and mortality rate are lower by neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery. The most important independent prognostic factor for overall survival rate was the lack of residual tumor in both types of treatment.The neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by cytoreductive surgery in ovarian cancer stage III C--IV is considered as a standard treatment.
