Résumé : Complete cytoreductive surgery (CRS), remain the gold standard in the treatment of peritoneal metastases of ovarian cancer (PMOC). Given the increasing rate of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with high PCI, prior abdominal surgeries, inflammation and fibrotic changes, the benefit of removing any "peritoneal scar-like tissues" (PST) during CRS, hasn't been thoroughly investigated. Our objective in this retrospective cohort was to identify the proportion of malignant cells positivity in PST of patients with PMOC, undergoing curative-intent CRS ± HIPEC.
