Resumo

ObjectiveThe optimal goal of interval debulking surgery (IDS) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) remains undefined. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal goal of IDS following NAC on the basis of long-term survival by the disease status at the end of interval look surgery (ILS) or IDS during the treatment in the setting of upfront primary debulking surgery (PDS).
