[Healing results of pseudomucinous ovarian carcinoma depending on therapy]

A report is given on 57 patients with pseudomucinous ovarian carcinomas. The prognosis of the disease depends on two decisive factors, if the FIGO stages are not taken into consideration: 1. the operation which should be executed as radically as possible, 2. the intraperitoneal instillation of radiogold which shall be repeated two times. The following therapeutic results were realized under this treatment: a five-year survival rate of 76,9% and a ten-year survival rate of 72.7%. There were no serious side-effects of the radiogold therapy since the introduction of routine peritoneographies before instillation of 198Au.
