Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Based on the histopathology report, no further oncological treatment is needed. But need a routine follow-up for every four to six months. I would suggest annual imaging with contrast CT scan of chest or abdomen or pelvis with biannual blood works such as complete blood count, creatinine, and Ca125.
