Hi,

If the histopathology report of ovarian tumor or glands is confirmed for malignancy, yes. She would be advised for post operative chemotherapy. Please go for information in primary diagnostic reports and consult your treating doctor with the reports in hand. His personal impression. The reports would decide the advise given.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
