Ovarian cancer (OC) exhibits an aggressive behavior, wherein the therapeutic approach always involves both surgery and chemotherapy. Survival outcomes are still related to comprehensive surgical excision of all macroscopic lesions (Rauh-Hain et al., 2017), increasing gynecologic oncologists' efforts to achieve the highest possible complete resection rate (Tozzi et al., 2024). The peritoneum serves as both a dissemination pathway and a barrier that restricts tumor spread beyond its confines. This understanding has prompted the adoption of en-bloc resection strategy for the entire pelvis, involving the removal of pelvic organs along with the surrounding peritoneum. The en-bloc pelvic resection procedure allows for the removal of pelvic disease in all cases of advanced ovarian cancer (Tozzi et al., 2017).Endeavors should be also directed towards minimizing surgical morbidity, by the adoption of minimally invasive surgery for debulking procedures (Tozzi et al., 2023).
