Chemotherapy of ovarian cancer.

Chemotherapy using a modified Cooper's regimen was applied during the past few years on 41 cases of advanced cancer of the ovary. We believe this scheme has not been attempted elsewhere. Twenty-five cases (60%) responded positively to this regimen. Two patients with generalized ovarian cancer may be cured. The combination of palliative surgery and polychemotherapy in cancer of the ovary may prove to be one of the most effective multidisciplinary approaches to generalized cancer.

Difficulties in preoperative diagnosis and modes of therapy are discussed. The findings are correlated with those of other authors and ways to improve survival are stressed.

Umbilical metastases from primary ovarian cancer are rare. Metastases to the umbilicus are most commonly from primary gastrointestinal malignancies. The second most common metastases are of gynecologic origin. This is the nineteenth well-documented case reported of a primary ovarian cancer with umbilical metastasis.
