BACKGROUND/AIM: We aimed to analyse the prognosis of patients who underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS) and those who underwent interval debulking surgery (IDS) following four courses of paclitaxel+ carboplatin as preoperative chemotherapy to examine the usefulness of preoperative chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included 45 patients with epithelial ovarian and peritoneal cancers accompanied with diaphragmatic lesions who underwent standard surgery combined with diaphragmatic surgery at two related institutions in January 2010-December 2013. Using medical records, we surveyed the recurrence period, recurrence site, and date of last confirmed survival, and analysed prognosis. RESULTS: The PDS and IDS groups comprised 32 and 13 patients (overall survival, 61.2 and 43.2 months), respectively. Progression-free survival in the PDS and IDS groups was 31.2 and 16.8 months, respectively. CONCLUSION: NAC-IDS can be a standard treatment option for patients with a tumour in the triangular ligament, in whom complete surgery is difficult. Copyright
