BACKGROUND: To compare the prognosis of lymphatic metastasis in type I and type II epithelial ovarian cancer (OC) and to identify the risk factors for pelvic lymph node metastases (PLNs) and para-aortic lymph node metastases (PALNs). METHODS: Patients diagnosed with epithelial OC were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were estimated. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to identify independent predictors of survival. RESULTS: A total of 11,275 patients with OC were enrolled, including 31.2% with type I and 68.8% with type II. Type II and high tumour stage were risk factors for lymph node involvement (p < 0.05). The overall rate of lymph node metastasis in type I was 11.8%, and that in type II was 36.7%. In the type I group, the lymph node metastasis rates in stages T1, T2, T3 and TXM1 were 3.2%, 14.5%, 40.4% and 50.0%, respectively. In the type II group, these rates were 6.4%, 20.4%, 54.1% and 61.1%, respectively. Age and tumour size had little effect on lymph node metastasis, and grade 3 was not always a risk factor. For the type I group, the 10-year CSS rates of LN(-), PLN( +), PALN( +), and PLN + PALN( +) were 80.6%, 46.6%, 36.3%, and 32.3%, respectively. The prognosis of PLN ( +) was better than that of PALN ( +) in the type I group (p > 0.05). For the type II group, the 10-year CSS rates of LN(-), PLN( +), PALN( +), and PLN + PALN( +) were 55.6%, 18.5%, 25.7%, and 18.2%, respectively. PALN ( +) had a significantly better prognosis than PLN ( +) in the type II group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The clinical characteristics and prognoses of patients with type I and type II OC differed greatly. Patients with type II and higher tumour stages had poorer prognoses. Type I with PALN metastasis and type II with PLN metastasis indicated a worse prognosis. Patients with stage TI did not require lymph node dissection, especially in the type I group.
