Brief Summary  
Goal of surgery in ovarian cancer is to optimally resect out all the disease sites within the intra-peritoneal cavity and lymphadenectomy is an integral part of it. Rate of lymph nodal metastasis has been seen to range from 20-40% in early ovarian cancers to upto 50-80% in advanced stages. National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) currently recommends para-aortic node dissection (PAND) up to the level of Inferior Mesenteric Artery (at least) or renal vessels (preferrable) along with bilateral pelvic node dissection in newly diagnosed EOC involving pelvis / upper abdomen with

However, para-aortic nodal dissection is associated with a high morbidity including increased operative time, blood loss, lymphocyst, lymphedema etc. Severity of complications related to lymphadenectomy will also depend on the level of nodal dissection. The extent and template of nodal dissection is not well defined in ovarian cancer, largely due to lack of dedicated audit of the involved nodal basins in these subsets of the patients.

Present study is intended to map out the pattern of the lymph nodes involved para-aortic region in ovarian cancer. Such study should help the surgical oncologist to decide the extent of the lymph node dissection in relation to stage of the disease and associated risk benefit ratio.
