Abstract: We report the long-term outcomes of RT used with curative intent in 62 women with recurrent/persistent ovarian and tubal cancer. Factors associated with long-term disease-free survival are also analysed. Methods From 1979-2010, 59 women with ovarian and 3 with tubal cancer received RT with curative intent (>45Gy). Cancer was recurrent in 43 and persistent (found at second-look laparotomy) in 19.
