Outcome of surgery in advanced ovarian cancer varies between geographical regions; opportunities for improvement in The Netherlands

Furthermore, the probability to achieve no residual disease differed significantly between regions, regardless of treatment sequence. This may suggest that surgical outcomes can be improved across geographical regions.
