Researchers examined the role of mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) in digestive resection for advanced ovarian cancer (OC) with peritoneal metastases. Out of 159 patients, 77 underwent digestive resection, with 61.1% having MLNs examined, and 56.8% showed involvement. Surprisingly, MLN status didn’t significantly impact overall survival or progression-free survival. This calls for further systematic and standardized studies to verify these results, highlighting the need for more research on the subject.
