No major medical organizations recommend routine ovarian cancer screening, but that hasn’t stopped doctors from regularly testing for the disease. According to a new study, primary care physicians and OB-GYNs regularly screen women at low-risk for ovarian cancer, exposing them to “substantial” potential harms.In the paper, published Monday in the Annals of Internal Medicine, researchers analyzed survey responses from doctors who were asked whether they would “almost always,” “sometimes” or “almost never” order — or offer — ovarian cancer screening during a woman’s annual exam. The researchers changed the hypothetical patient’s age, race and insurance, as well as her genetic and hereditary risk factors for ovarian cancer — a disease often called the “silent killer” because it goes undetected until it has spread.From a final pool of more than 1,000 physicians, some six percent of respondents said they routinely ordered or offered ovarian cancer screening for low-risk women, while nearly a quarter said they regularly offered it to medium-risk women.To put that in perspective the researchers estimate that, if applied nationally, approximately 1.2 million women in the U.S.

The research team’s goal was to see if they could use the number of operations a woman undergoes as a potential measure of quality of care. To make this assessment, the researchers looked at how many women required a second surgery because the pathology report showed that there was a not a “clean margin.” Margin is a term of art used to describe whether there are cancer cells right at the edge of the tissue that has been removed
