Abstract

Abstract : The German Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynaekologische Onkologie (AGO) and the two German cooperative study groups (AGO-OVAR and NOGGO) performed a review of the currently available literature on intraperitoneal first-line treatment in advanced ovarian cancer to consider if this new option should be incorporated into the German guidelines for treatment of ovarian cancer.
