Recovery of the decreased phagocytic function of peripheral monocytes and neutrophil granulocytes following cytoreductive surgery in advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer

SUMMARY

    To ascertain the potential impact of surgery on phagocyte function, the authors additionally assessed the phagocyte function of monocytes and neutrophil granulocytes isolated from both pre- and postoperative blood samples of patients who had undergone abdominal surgery for benign gynecological tumors (surgical control group). In the surgical controls, the PI values of monocytes and neutrophils from preoperative blood samples did not exhibit significant differences from the postoperative PI values. No significant difference was observed in the phagocytic function of preoperative monocytes and neutrophil granulocytes among patients with benign gynecological tumors (surgical control group) and healthy control women . . .
