One prognostic factor in epithelial ovarian cancer appears to be the patient''s age at presentation. Data from 2305 patients with this tumor in East Anglia [England, UK] during the period 1960-1980 was analyzed. The influence of age as a factor in survival was studied by comparing outcome in young patients between the ages of 15 and 35 (3.1% of all cases) with the outcome in the women over 35. The prognosis was significantly better in young patients, even when age correction is applied. This has implications for the management of patients with this common tumor.
