Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer characterized by highly aggressive and poor prognosis. However, it is unclear what factors are associated with OCCC recurrence and death. The study aimed to evaluate whether residual tumor diameter after primary debulking surgery, or other clinicopathological features play roles in predicting survival outcome in stage II-IV OCCC patients.
