Relationships between T-stage and yield and accuracy of laparoscopy
| T-stage | All patients (n = 136) n (%) | SL group (n = 46) n (%) | DDa All patients n (%) | DD at laparoscopy, n | DD after SL, n | Yieldbn (%) | Accuracycn (%) |

a
P = 0.004, chi-squared test
b
P = 0.06, Cochran–Armitage test
c
P = 0.47, Fisher's exact test.
SL, staging laparoscopy; DD, disseminated or unresectable disease.
