Core Tip

Core Tip: This study found that patients with gastric cancer ovarian metastases (GCOM) who underwent metastatic resection had significantly longer survival and a significantly better prognosis than patients with GCOM who did not undergo surgery. It also found that patients with GCOM who underwent surgery did or did not receive neoadjuvant therapy. There were no statistically significant differences in prognosis or survival time. Finally, a group of patients who would benefit from metastatic resection was screened.
