NOGGO S19 - EXPRESSION VIII (8)
For patients with a low-grade ovarian carcinoma (group A) or a borderline tumor of the ovary (group B – closed).
Serous ovarian carcinoma is classified into a well-differentiated (low-grade) tumor and a low-differentiated (high-grade) tumor. The low-grade tumor accounts for only about 10% of ovarian carcinomas and is associated with a better prognosis compared to the high-grade tumor. Despite the good prognosis, there is a great need for information for and about this patient group.
What is the aim of this survey?
As part of the survey “EXPRESSION VIII – Individual perception and level of information of patients with low-grade ovarian cancer or a borderline tumor of the ovary”, we would like to learn from you in order to improve patient education about the disease and therapy and thus increase the level of information of patients.
