Abstract

Abstract: Appendectomy is an important component of surgical treatment for epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC).However,in clinical practice,there is no unified diagnostic and treatment opinion on its surgical indications and the benefits and risks of resection.Based on existing evidence-based medicine,combined with the treatment principles and disease characteristics of EOC,and referencing international relevant guidelines on the basis of China′s current diagnosis and treatment guidelines,this consensus systematically proposes the indications of appendectomy for the first time and clearly states that prophylactic appendectomy is not recommended during EOC surgery for an appendix with normal appearance.This consensus aims to provide a reference basis for the standardized treatment and clinical management of EOC.

Key words: epithelial ovarian cancer, appendectomy, expert consensus
