Distribution of their histological diagnosis was as 69.6% serous, 10.7% mucinous, 5.1% endometrial and 4.7% undifferentiated carcinoma. The grade distribution was found as 8.4% grade 1, 40.9% grade 2 and 35.9% grade 3.The primary surgery was evaluated as optimal in 41.7%, suboptimal in 37.3% and exploration was performed in 21.1%. Most patients started chemotherapy 20 days after surgery and 74.2% of them got six courses. During the evaluation period 61 intervallum laparotomies were performed, and resulted on 55.7% optimal debulking. Complete remission was found in 58.9%, and partial remission in 14.7% of patients. This treatment resulted on a complete remission in 40.9% at the follow-up of 12 months.
