- Recurrent ovarian cancer
- Prior chemotherapy for ovarian cancer or abdominal/pelvic radiotherapy
- Diseases of the lymph system (including lymph edema of unknown origin)
- Clinical relevant dysfunctions of blood clotting (including medicamentous conditioned reasons, e.g. ASS, if not stopped at least 7 days prior to surgery)

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Overall Survival time from randomization until death
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method - Progression-free survival (PFS) - Quality of life (QoL) as measured by EORTC QLQ-C30, OV28 - number of resected lymph nodes Progression-free survival time is calculated from the date of surgery until the date of first progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first or date of last contact (censored observation).
