Hepatic resection for recurrent metastatic ovarian cancer.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:The role for liver resection in metastatic ovarian cancer has not been defined. The aim of the current study was to investigate the validity of hepatic resection as a treatment option in metastatic ovarian cancer. METHODS:Retrospective review of a single institution's experience of patients undergoing hepatic resection for metastatic ovarian cancer from 1998-2006. RESULTS:Ten patients underwent resection for metastatic ovarian cancer. Primary tumor type included serous cystadenocarcinoma (n = 8), granulosa cell (n = 1), and yolk sac (n = 1). Median disease-free interval was 48 months. Liver resections included trisegmentectomy (n = 4), lobectomy (n = 4), and bisegmentectomy(n = 1). Additional surgeries included diaphragm resection (n = 60), bowel resection, (n = 30), and adrenalectomy (n = 10). The median overall survival following liver resection was 33 months. CONCLUSION:Liver resection for metastatic ovarian cancer is safe and is associated with long-term survival in some patients. Larger analysis may lead to the identification of prognostic factors associated with improved outcomes.
