Abstract
181 diagnostic correlations between endocelomatic free-fluid or washing cytology and histological findings during staging or follow-up of patients suffering from ovarian cancer have been assessed. On the basis of the evaluation of the sensitivity and specificity of endocelomatic cytology, its importance in diagnostic protocols for evaluating the presence or persistence of disease is reiterated.
