Patterns of Lymph Node Metastases in Apparent Stage I Low-Grade Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A Multicenter Study

Abstract: The risk of LN involvement in nonserous apparent stage I LGEOC appears low, with a rate of <1% in this retrospective analysis, raising questions about the value of lymphadenectomy in those patients. Larger-scale prospective studies are warranted to evaluate the oncologic safety of omitting systematic LN staging in apparent stage I nonserous LGEOC.

“…13 The limitations of this study included no data being available regarding peritoneal involvement of disease and there is a possibility that patients undergoing IDS have a higher burden LGSOC, 10.7% of women had positive lymph nodes (LN). 34 Interestingly the upstaging of patients due to LN involvement alone occurred in only 2.4% of women and there was no significant difference in OS or PFS between LN positive and negative patients. 34 Of note, fewer patients in the LN negative group received chemotherapy.…”
