Abstract

During 1960s and 1970s, the first laparoscopic procedures concerned the treatment of benign diseases. Today the indications have significantly increased even in ovarian borderline tumours and in ovarian cancer. Furthermore, the role of diagnostic laparoscopy remains apparent in the overall therapeutic setting of advanced ovarian cancer as well. The chapter aims to summarize current evidence regarding potential role of laparoscopy in ovarian cancer treatment as well as indicate potential difficulties its usage may pose.
