160P Lymphadenectomy in clinically node-negative ovarian cancer (FIGO I-III): A population-based analysis from the Baden-Wuerttemberg Cancer Registry

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The role of systematic lymphadenectomy (LND) in clinically node-negative ovarian cancer remains controversial. Although LND improves staging by detecting occult nodal metastases, it increases surgical morbidity and its therapeutic value is uncertain. We evaluated the diagnostic yield and survival association of LND in a population-based cohort.
