Between 1972 and 1985, 25 patients with ovarian pure dysgerminoma were treated in the Center of Oncology in Cracow. In twenty-two (88%) patients total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and postoperative radiotherapy was undertaken. Unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy alone was undertaken in 3 patients in stage IA. The five-year disease-free survival for all patients was 84%, for patients in stage IA degrees -- 100% (11/11), I degree -- 94.4% (17/18), II degrees and III degrees -- 57.1% (4/7).
