The role of Lymphadenectomy in early-stage mucinous Ovarian Cancer
The risk of lymph node metastasis is very low in early-stage mucinous ovarian cancer. Lymphadenectomy causes an increase in the duration of operation and hospital stay and does not contribute to disease-free and overall survival. Therefore, routine lymphadenectomy should be carefully evaluated in clinical early-stage mucinous ovarian cancer to reduce morbidity.
