[Endolymphatic polychemotherapy of ovarian cancer].

The results of treatment in 118 patients with ovarian cancer are presented. The sessional doses were as follows: thioTEPA--200--300 mg or cyclophosphamide--3200--4000 mg+5-fluorouracil--2000--3000 mg. Despite the fact that 116 patients had III--IV stages of the disease, the objective effect of the treatment was observed in 95 of them. Thus, the complete disappearance of tumor was gained in 3 cases, reduction of the tumor size more than by 50%--in 68 patients, more than by 25%--in 18, an insignificant diminishing of tumor, the appearance of its mobility--in 13. Surgical intervention has been performed in 96 patients, that makes 82% of the operability. Supravaginal amputation of the uterus with adnexa and extirpation of the greater omentum have been performed in 76 cases, that yields 67% of resectability. Sole tumors have been removed in 11 patients, the intervention being confined to laparotomy in 6 (5.1%). Pronounced degenerative and necrobiotic alterations in the tumor were revealed by its histochemical assay in 22 patients 40, 50 and 60 days after endolymphatic infusion of chemotherapeutic drugs.
