🎗️ Ovarian Cancer Suidan Score (Suboptimal Cytoreduction Prediction)
Predict suboptimal primary cytoreduction (residual > 1 cm) risk in advanced ovarian cancer from pre-operative CT findings, CA-125 and clinical factors. Instant, browser-side.
The model uses pre-operative abdominopelvic CT plus CA-125 and clinical factors, with predictive accuracy around 0.76.

When to use
Support the primary-debulking vs neoadjuvant-chemotherapy decision in advanced ovarian/tubal/peritoneal cancer.
How it works
Weighted sum: lesser sac +4; ASA 3–4 +3; perisplenic / small-bowel mesentery / SMA root each +2; age ≥ 60 / CA-125 ≥ 500 / suprarenal nodes / diffuse small bowel each +1. Bands 0 → ~ 5%, up to ≥ 9 → ~ 74% suboptimal.
Key points
- The model uses pre-operative abdominopelvic CT plus CA-125 and clinical factors, with predictive accuracy around 0.76.
- Higher scores (≥ 7, suboptimal rate ≥ 52%) favour neoadjuvant chemotherapy + interval debulking or referral to an experienced centre.
- It is decision-support, not a hard cut-off — combine with performance status, surgeon experience and multidisciplinary input.
- The CA-125 ≥ 500 U/mL threshold is specific to this model.

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.

| Suprarenal retroperitoneal nodes (incl. supradiaphragmatic) > 1 cm (+1) | No |
| Diffuse small-bowel adhesions/thickening (+1) | No |
| Perisplenic lesion > 1 cm (+2) | No |
| Small-bowel mesentery lesion > 1 cm (+2) | No |
| Lesion at the root of the superior mesenteric artery > 1 cm (+2) | No |
| ASA class 3–4 (+3) | No |
| Lesser-sac lesion > 1 cm (+4) | No |

- Total:0 pts (band 0) → suboptimal cytoreduction (residual > 1 cm) rate ~ 5%
- Scored items:No positive items (0 pts)
- Clinical note:Low suboptimal risk: favour primary debulking surgery (PDS) provided optimal cytoreduction is achievable

→Suidan score17 pts
- Total:17 pts (band ≥ 9) → suboptimal cytoreduction (residual > 1 cm) rate ~ 74%
- Scored items:Age ≥ 60 (+1), CA-125 ≥ 500 (+1), suprarenal nodes > 1 cm (+1), diffuse small-bowel adhesions/thickening (+1), perisplenic > 1 cm (+2), small-bowel mesentery > 1 cm (+2), SMA root > 1 cm (+2), ASA 3–4 (+3), lesser sac > 1 cm (+4)
- Clinical note:High suboptimal risk: favour neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) + interval debulking surgery (IDS), or refer to an experienced gyn-onc centre / laparoscopic assessment (e.g. Fagotti score) before deciding
