Maximal cytoreduction (R0) was achieved in 67 of patients (44.4%),39 patients had a residual disease ≤1 cm (25.8%) and 45 patients had a residual disease >1 cm (28.8%). LVSI were recorded in 51 patients (33.8%).LVSI was were associated to higher serum level of CA 125 >1000UI/ml (52.9% vs 33%,p=0.01),higher quantity of ascites >1litre (49% vs 28%,p=0.01) with more frequent cacinomatosis in the upper abdomen (60.8% vs 31%, p<0.0001) and more residual disease R1/R2 (72.5% vs 47%,p<0.0001),bilateral tumors (82.4% vs 58%,p=0.003),advanced FIGO stage III-IV (96.1% vs 68%, p<0.0001) and high tumor grade (88.3% vs 59%, p<0.0001). Among the 84 patients who underwent lymphadenectomy, LVSI positive tumors were correlated to higher risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) (57.1% vs 30.4%, p=0.018) with higher LN ratio (13.95±21.69 vs 7.25±17.90, p=0.17) and more frequent associated pelvic and para aortic LNM (33.3% vs 10.2%, p=0.015). LVSI positive tumors were correlated to a decreased 5-years overall survival (25.2%vs 44%, p=0.004) and recurrence free survival (26.8% vs 47%,p=0.019).Conclusion LVSI is an independent predictor of extended lymph node metastasis, progression and survival in patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer.
