Possibility and feasibility of partial pleverectomy was established thoracoscopically (n=7, 16%). Pleurodesis (n=16; 37%) was performed in order to stop malignant recurrent pleural effusion. Pleurodesis effectiveness: complete remission (n=11; 69%); partial remission (n=4; 25%); progression of the disease (n=1; 6%). Mediastinoscopy was performed in 18 patients (42%) with radiological signs of mediastinal lymphadenopathy. In 12 cases (28%) cancer etiology had been confirmed and further lymphadenectomy was performed. In other cases (n=6; 14%), lymphadenopathy was not malignant with no subsequent surgery. Surgeries for lung parenchyma were the following: atypical lung resection (n=17, 40%), segmentectomy (n=3, 7%), lobectomy (n=2, 5%). Postoperative complications and mortality were 9% (n=4) and 2% (n=1), respectively.

Recurrent ovarian cancer with of thoracic organs, traditionally, is not considered from the perspective of surgical treatment. Diagnostic surgical interventions allow individualizing treatment.
