Video Summary
In this video, Dr. Jubilee Brown, a professor and division director of gynecologic oncology at Levine Cancer Institute at Atrium Health in Charlotte, North Carolina, discusses the role of minimally invasive surgery in treating ovarian cancer. She explains that traditionally, ovarian cancer has been treated with open surgery, but there is now a shift towards using minimally invasive surgery, particularly with the increasing use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Dr. Brown discusses five areas where minimally invasive surgery plays a role in ovarian cancer, including diagnosis, primary surgery and staging, evaluation of advanced stage disease, interval cytoreduction following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and resection of isolated recurrent disease. She also presents clinical examples and research on the effectiveness of minimally invasive surgery and highlights ongoing prospective studies in this field. Dr. Brown acknowledges her team at Atrium Health and expresses gratitude for the opportunity to present.
