Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Ovarian Cancer
Interventions
Other: sentinel node technique
Registration Number
NCT03452982
Lead Sponsor
Instituto de Investigacion Sanitaria La Fe
Brief Summary

This research study evaluates the concordance of the result between two diagnostic tests: Sentinel node and Pelvic-para-aortic lymphadenectomy in patients with ovarian cancer.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to describe the feasibility of performing the sentinel node technique (Detection rate) in patients with early stage ovarian cancer.

With this research study it will be evaluated the concordance of the result between two diagnostic tests: Sentinel node and Pelvic-para-aortic lymphadenectomy in patients with ovarian cancer.
