Abstract:
The objective of this video is to show the feasibility of secondary cytoreductive surgery for recurrent high-grade serous ovarian cancer. The procedure targets recurrences in the cardiophrenic lymph nodes and the right diaphragm involving the right basal pleura. Using video-assisted thoracoscopy, the thoracic recurrences were dissected and removed. Minimally invasive thoracic secondary cytoreductive surgery proved to be safe and feasible and facilitated rapid post-operative recovery, ensuring timely access to subsequent second-line adjuvant chemotherapy.
