Advanced ovarian cancer with malignant bowel obstruction treated with multidisciplinary therapy resulting in long progression-free survival: a case report

The findings of this study challenge the current negative prognosis of such patients and highlight the need for prospective studies to further explore the potential benefits of this approach.
