What is Ovarian Cancer?
The ovaries are a pair of reproductive glands on each side of the uterus that produce eggs that can develop into a fetus. Ovarian cancer most commonly affects the surface lining of the ovaries or nearby structures such as the fallopian tubes.

Wilmot Cancer InstituteTreatments for Ovarian Cancer
University of Rochester Medicine Wilmot Cancer Institute is committed to providing the highest-quality treatment and care — through expert and innovative medicine, science, and education — for any patient burdened by any cancer within our region and beyond.
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC)
Wilmot Cancer Institute offers specialized treatment that combines surgery with heated chemotherapy delivered directly to your abdomen. Heated chemotherapy helps destroy cancer cells that cannot be seen or removed during surgery. Because the medication is delivered locally, not through the bloodstream, higher doses can be used with fewer whole-body side effects.
What Sets Us Apart?
Wilmot Cancer Institute provides world-class cancer treatment and care and conducts pivotal research. The goal is to prevent and conquer cancer through innovation in science, patient care, education, and community outreach.
