PURE vs. mixed clear cell ovarian carcinomas: Is there any impact on survival?

CONCLUSION: This retrospective study showed that although mixed type histological origin was associated with higher OS and DFS rates compared to pure type in patients with CCOC, the difference was not statistically significant. Advanced age and the presence of endometriosis was found to have a significant independent effect on OS and DFS and was associated with a worse prognosis. Overall, this study provides useful insights into the clinical characteristics of patients with CCOC and identifies important prognostic factors affecting survival.PMID:38518487 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.03.021
