The results of treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer after centralisation of primary surgery. Results from North Jutland, Denmark

The results indicate a survival benefit after introduction of centralised primary surgery. Compared to existing national and regional data on survival in ovarian cancer, the results indicate an increase in median survival for all stages of approximately 15 months. Centralisation of primary surgery to centres with the necessary expertise may be the most significant way to increase survival in ovarian cancer in Denmark.
