In the clash of surgical approaches for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, laparoscopic interval cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (L-CRS-HIPEC) outshone the open approach. With a significantly shorter hospital stay and faster return to systemic chemotherapy, L-CRS-HIPEC demonstrated comparable oncological outcomes. This study hints at the potential superiority of the laparoscopic approach in selected cases, paving the way for future research to solidify its status as a game-changer in ovarian cancer treatment.
