Item Recurrence patterns and prognostic factors in lymphovascular space invasion-positive endometrioid endometrial cancer surgically confined to the uterus(2019) Sahin, Hanifi; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Kocaman, Eda; Cuylan, Zeliha Fırat; Yalcin, Ibrahim; Coban, Gonca; Ozen, Ozlem; Sirvan, Levent; Gungor, Tayfun; Ayhan, Ali; 30638487Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of failure and prognostic factors for lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI)-positive endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC) patients in the setting of negative lymph nodes (LNs). Materials and methods: A multicenter, retrospective department database review was performed to identify LVSI-positive patients with disease surgically confined to the uterus at two gynecologic oncology centers in Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological and survival data were collected. Results: We identified 185 LVSI-positive women with negative LNs during the study period. Fifty-five (29.7%) were classified as Stage IA, 94 (50.8%) as Stage IB, and 36 (19.5%) as Stage II. The median age at diagnosis was 59 years and the median duration of follow-up was 44 months. The total number of the recurrences was 12 (6.5%). We observed 5 (2.9%) loco-regional recurrences, 3 (1.5%) retroperitoneal failures, and 4 (2.0%) distant relapses. The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 86.1% while the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 87.7%. Grade 3 histology (Hazard Ratio [HR] 2.9, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.02-8.50; p = 0.04), cervical stromal invasion (HR 4.5, 95% CI 1.61-12.79; p = 0.004) and age > 60 years (HR 5.8, 95% CI 1.62-21.32; p = 0.007) were found to be independent prognostic factors for decreased OS. Adjuvant treatment did not appear as a prognostic factor for OS even in univariate analysis. Conclusion: The recurrence rate among LVSI-positive endometrioid EC patients is low in the setting of negative LNs. However, one out of three patients with a recurrence experiences distant relapses which usually portend worse outcomes. (C) 2018 Taiwan Association of Obstetrics & Gynecology.

MethodsA multicenter, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with stage III nonserous EOC who had undergone maximal or optimal primary CRS followed by six cycles of carboplatin/paclitaxel chemotherapy at seven gynecological oncology centers in Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological and survival data were collected. ResultsA total of 218 women met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 64 (29.4%) patients had endometrioid, 61 (28%) had mucinous, 54 (24.8%) had clear-cell and 39 (17.9%) had mixed epithelial tumors. Fifty-five (25.2%) patients underwent maximal CRS, whereas 163 (74.8%) had optimal debulking. With a median follow-up of 31.5 months, the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 34.8% and 44.2%, respectively. Bilaterality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.44, 95% CI 1.01-2.056; P = 0.04), age (HR 2.25, 95% CI 1.176-4.323; P = 0.014) and maximal cytoreduction (HR 0.34, 95% CI 0.202-0.58; P < 0.001) were found to be independent prognostic factors for PFS. However, age (HR 2.6, 95% CI 1.215-5.591; P = 0.014) and maximal cytoreduction (HR 0.31, 95% CI 0.166-0.615; P < 0.001) were defined as independent prognostic factors for OS. ConclusionThe extent of CRS seems to be the only modifiable prognostic factor associated with stage III nonserous EOC. Complete cytoreduction to no gross residual disease should be the main goal of management in these women.Item Comparison of stage III mucinous and serous ovarian cancer: a case-control study(2018) Ayhan, Ali; Cuylan, Zeliha Fırat; Karabuk, Emine; Oz, Murat; Turan, Ahmet Taner; Meydanli, Mehmet M.; Taskin, Salih; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Sahin, Hanifi; Ulukent, Suat C.; Akbayir, Ozgur; Gungorduk, Kemal; Gungor, Tayfun; Kose, Mehmet F.; 30376858Background: The purpose of this case-control study was to compare the prognoses of women with stage III mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) who received maximal or optimal cytoreduction followed by paclitaxel plus carboplatin chemotherapy to those of women with stage III serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) treated in the similar manner. Methods: We performed a multicenter, retrospective review to identify patients with stage III MOC at seven gynecologic oncology departments in Turkey. Eighty-one women with MOC were included. Each case was matched to two women with stage III serous EOC in terms of age, tumor grade, substage of disease, and extent of residual disease. Survival estimates were measured using Kaplan-Meier plots. Variables predictive of outcome were analyzed using Cox regression models. Results: With a median follow-up of 54months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) for women with stage III MOC was 18.0months (95% CI; 13.8-22.1, SE: 2.13) compared to 29.0 months (95% CI; 24.04-33.95, SE: 2.52) in the serous group (p = 0.19). The 5-year overall survival rate of the MOC group was significantly lower than that of the serous EOC group (44.9% vs. 66.3%, respectively; p < 0.001). For the entire cohort, presence of multiple peritoneal implants (Hazard ratio [HR] 2.39; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.38-4.14, p = 0.002) and mucinous histology (HR 2.28; 95% CI, 1.53-3.40, p < 0.001) were identified as independent predictors of decreased OS. Conclusion: Patients with MOC seem to be 2.3 times more likely to die of their tumors when compared to women with serous EOC.Item Impact of lymph node ratio on survival in stage IIIC endometrioid endometrial cancer: a Turkish Gynecologic Oncology Group study(2018) Ayhan, Ali; Ozkan, Nazli Topfedaisi; Oz, Murat; Comert, Gunsu Kimyon; Cuylan, Zeliha Fırat; Coban, Gonca; Turkmen, Osman; Erdem, Baki; Sahin, Hanifi; Akbayir, Ozgur; Dede, Murat; Turan, Ahmet Taner; Celik, Husnu; Gungor, Tayfun; Haberal, Ali; Arvas, Macit; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; 29770619Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of lymph node ratio (LNR) in women with stage IIIC endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC). Methods: A multicenter, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with stage IIIC pure endometrioid EC at 6 gynecologic oncology centers in Turkey. A total of 207 women were included. LNR, defined as the percentage of positive lymph nodes (LNs) to total nodes recovered, was stratified into 2 groups: LNR1 (<= 0.15), and LNR2 (> 0.15). Kaplan-Meier method was used to generate survival data. Factors predictive of outcome were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models. Results: One hundred and one (48.8%) were classified as stage IIIC1 and 106 (51.2%) as stage IIIC2. The median age at diagnosis was 58 (range, 30-82) and the median duration of follow-up was 40 months (range, 1-228 months). There were 167 (80.7%) women with LNR <= 0.15, and 40 (19.3%) women with LNR > 0.15. The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates for LNR <= 0.15 and LNR > 0.15 were 76.1%, and 58.5%, respectively (p= 0.045). An increased LNR was associated with a decrease in 5-year overall survival (OS) from 87.0% for LNR <= 0.15 to 62.3% for LNR > 0.15 (p= 0.005). LNR > 0.15 was found to be an independent prognostic factor for both PFS (hazard ratio [HR]= 2.05; 95% confidence interval [CI]= 1.07-3.93; p= 0.03) and OS (HR= 3.35; 95% CI= 1.57-7.19; p= 0.002). Conclusion: LNR seems to be an independent prognostic factor for decreased PFS and OS in stage IIIC pure endometrioid EC.
