The prognostic role of systematic lymphadenectomy remains unclear in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC). Only few retrospective case series have investigated the percentage of lymph node metastases after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This multi-institutional case-control study analyzed the prognostic role of systematic lymphadenectomy in AOC patients at the time of interval debulking surgery (IDS).

Abstract
The prognostic role of systematic lymphadenectomy remains unclear in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC). Only few retrospective case series have investigated the percentage of lymph node metastases after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This multi-institutional case-control study analyzed the prognostic role of systematic lymphadenectomy in AOC patients at the time of interval debulking surgery (IDS).
