Abstract

This chapter presents a series of case studies related to ovarian cancer: neoadjuvant, adjuvant, and surgical issues. The first case study is about a 60-year-old female with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0, who completed carboplatin and paclitaxel 18 months ago for completely resected, stage IIIC, high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Other case studies include a 50-year-old underwent laparoscopic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for a 6 cm ovarian cyst and a normal CA125 under the direction of her general gynecologist, and a 56-year-old with stage IIIC high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Finally, the chapter discusses the case study of a 56-year-old with stage IIIC high grade serous ovarian cancer.
