Whole abdominal and pelvic irradiation in patients with minimal disease at second-look surgical reassessment for ovarian carcinoma.

Abstract:

:Aggressive cytoreductive surgery followed by combination chemotherapy for stage III ovarian carcinoma has resulted in a significant percentage of complete clinical responses. However, 30-50% of patients with no clinical evidence of disease are found to have residual carcinoma at second-look surgical reassessment. Because recent reports have indicated a high degree of effectiveness utilizing abdominal and pelvic irradiation as primary therapy for ovarian carcinoma with small residual disease, the authors treated eight patients found to have residual disease of less than 1 cm at second-look reassessment with either open field or split field abdominal and pelvic irradiation. All eight patients had initially undergone aggressive cytoreductive surgery and seven of the eight patients had received multidrug chemotherapy. Patients were treated either at the National Cancer Institute or the Naval Hospital Bethesda both with and without intraperitoneal radiation sensitizers. Fifty percent of the patients required early termination of therapy due to myelosuppression. All eight patients have recurred and three have died. Six of the eight patients have required major surgical procedures for gastrointestinal complications. Based on this experience, we cannot advocate this form of therapy in patients with minimal residual ovarian carcinoma following second-look surgical reassessment.
