Death rates have also fallen an average of 2.8% per year. Like many other cancers, when ovarian cancer is found at an early stage (for example, localized to the ovary or fallopian tube) the average survival rate of five years is very good (about 93%); most women at stage 1 will ...
Conclusion Differences in stage at diagnosis partly explain international variation in ovarian cancer survival, and a more adverse stage distribution contributes to comparatively low survival in Denmark. This could arise because of differences in tumour biology, staging procedures or diagnostic delay....
Ovarian cancer is difficult to diagnose because symptoms often do not occur until late in the disease. Symptoms do not occur until the tumor has grown large enough to apply pressure to other organs in the abdomen, or until the cancer has spread to remote organs. The symptoms are nonspecific,...

Stage IV ovarian cancer means it has spread to other parts of your body. Learn more about treatment options and what survival rates mean for you.
aOvarian cancer has one of the highest mortality rates of all gynecologic malignant tumors. More than 70% of patients are late-stage at diagnosis [1], and the 5-year survival rate is approximately 19~40% [2-3]. Locoregional recurrence and distant metastases are ominous events in patients wi...
1 Mortality rates from ovarian cancer vary by stage at diagnosis; 5-year survival rates range from 92.5% for localized cancer to 28.9% for cancer with distant spread.14 Scope of Review The USPSTF commissioned a review of the evidence on screening for ovarian cancer to update its 2012 ...
Patients with early stage ovarian cancer are often asymptomatic or report nonspecific symptoms so ovarian cancer is mostly diagnosed at an advanced stage [1, 2]. Primary treatment includes operative cytoreduction and subsequent combined platinum-based chemotherapy. Though reported primary response rates ...
Ovarian cancer (OC) represents a major female health concern. It is characterized by poor prognosis and survival outcomes of OC patients have not changed significantly in the last decades.1The vast majority of women are diagnosed with an advanced stage disease and less than 40% of patients survi...
