This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows: The objective of this review will be to evaluate the impact of laparoscopy in the surgical treatment for FIGO stage I ovarian cancer (stages Ia,Ib, Ic) when compared with laparotomy. The following issues will be addressed in this review: (1) Is laparoscopy (intervention group) effective in improving overall survival compared with laparotomy (control group) in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer? (2) Is laparoscopy (intervention group) effective in reducing progression-free survival compared with laparotomy (control group) in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer? (3) Does primary laparoscopy result in less surgical complications than laparotomy (control group) in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer? (4) Does primary laparoscopy (intervention group) result in more local recurrence (port site) than laparotomy (control group) in midline incision in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer? (5) Does primary laparoscopy (intervention group) result in more distant recurrence than laparotomy (control group) in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer? (6) Does primary laparoscopy (intervention group) result more tumour spillage at the time of surgery than laparotomy (control group) in patients with FIGO Stage I ovarian cancer?
