To study scalene lymph node involvement in ovarian cancer, 37 patients with this disease underwent pretherapeutic open sampling of the left scalene fat tissue. Only 1 patient had a palpable supraclavicular mass. Positive scalene nodes were found in 7 (22%) of 32 patients with stage III or IV disease. Three of four patients with positive scalene nodes also had both positive pelvic and positive paraaortic nodes; one patient with stage IV disease had negative pelvic and paraaortic nodes. Demonstration of scalene node involvement per se currently does not alter the management of patients with ovarian cancer, although patients with occult involvement of the scalene nodes could be considered ineligible for intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
