Of 267 patients with ovarian cancer FIGO stages III and IV, 157 underwent second-look laparotomy after combination chemotherapy consisting of cis-platinum and cyclophosphamide with and without doxorubicin. At second-look operation 45% had macroscopic tumour, 15% microscopic tumour, and 40% complete pathological response. Survival 3 years after second look was: complete pathological response 74%; microscopic disease 24%; visible tumour less than 1 cm 28%; visible tumour greater than 1 cm 17%; negative cytology 59%; and positive cytology 18%. Of the patients with macroscopic tumour, 29% had all visible tumour removed at second look. Three-year survival for these patients was about 45%.
