Chemotherapy for ovarian cancer with a liver transplant patient?

If needed yes: Liver transplant patients need chemotherapy will be given with close monitoring , working as team . Interesting observation, in liver transplant patients the incidence of ovarian cancer is less than the normal population.

Ovarian cancer: Depends on the type of ovarian cancer. In transplant patients, we use basically the same cancers but are even more about infections due to the increased immunosuppression.
