Brief Title: Early Dehiscence Markers in Ovarian Cancer Surgery
Official Title: Procalcitonin and C-Reactive Protein as Early Anastomotic Dehiscence Markers in Ovarian Cancer Surgery
Study ID: NCT03131492
Brief Summary: EDMOCS trial pretends to evaluate if C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) can predict intestinal anastomotic leaks before early discharge in advanced ovarian cancer surgery requiring intestinal resection. These markers have already been positively tested in colorectal cancer surgery, but not yet in ovarian surgery. Patients undergoing intestinal resection in ovarian cancer surgery will be included. C-reactive protein and PCT will be measured pre-operatively, and on the second, fourth and sixth postoperative day. Thirty-day readmissions, re-operations and mortality will be recorded.
