ABSTRACT
Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of tumor-related death among gynecological malignancies. Epithelial tumors are the most frequent, followed by sarcomas, germ cell and stromal tumors ( 10 ). These tumors commonly metastasize to the peritoneal cavity and lymph nodes, however, liver metastases are also a common site of systemic spread ( 10 ). Since there is an inverse correlation between the volume of the residual tumor and the overall patient survival, resection of liver metastases should be performed with optimal cytoreduction of extrahepatic lesions ( 11 , 12 ). By this, median overall survival can be prolonged significantly ( 11 ).
