    Purpose Endometrioid-type endometrial cancer is usually diagnosed in the early stages and has a good prognosis. Patients with stage 1 disease have survival rates over 95%. Tumor factors affect survival in these patients, but polyp-originated growing has not been sufficiently discussed in the literature. This study aimed to determine the effect of polyp-originated growing in stage 1 endometrioid-type endometrial cancer and to provide a review of the literature. Methods This study includes 318 stage 1 endometrioid-type endometrial cancer patients. The patients were divided into two groups based on the tumor origin. Group I included patients with polyp-originated growing tumors, and Group II included patients with endometrial surface-originated growing tumors. Results Groups I and II included 39 and 279 patients, respectively. The general properties of the patients were similar; there were no significant differences. The univariate survival analyses showed that overall survival for Groups I and II was 65.5 and 83.6 months, respectively; this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.002). The multivariate analysis of age, maximum tumor diameter, tumor origin, lymphovascular space involvement, myometrial invasion depth and tumor grade showed that polyp-originated growing was independently and significantly associated with overall survival (HR 4.05; 95% CI 1.2-13.5; p = 0.023). Conclusion Polyp-originated growing may be a prognostic factor for early stage endometrioid-type endometrial cancer. The prognostic effect of polyp-originated growing is not well known, and further investigation is necessary.

    Are There Any Predictors of Endometrial Premalignancy/Malignancy within Endometrial Polyps in Infertile Patients?
    (2019) Tohma, Yusuf Aytac; Onalan, Gogsen; Esin, Sertac; Sahin, Hanifi; Aysun, Dide; Kuscu, Esra; Haberal, Ali; Zeyneloglu, Hulusi Bulent; 0000-0001-9418-4733; 31311015
    Background: In the literature, there is no detailed analysis on the prediction factors for premalignancy/malignancy within endometrial polyps (EPs) in infertile patients. In this study, we aimed to determine the frequency of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs in infertile patients undergoing office hysteroscopic polypectomy and identify the factors that can potentially predict an endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs. Method: A total of 957 infertile patients undergoing office hysteroscopy were diagnosed with EPs between February 2011 and August 2018. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the pathological examination of EPs as benign (Group 1; n = 939) and premalignant/malignant (Group 2; n = 18). The medical records of all patients included in the study were reviewed retrospectively. Results: In this cohort, prevalence of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within EPs was 18/957 (1.88%). On univariate analysis, age, polyp size, diabetes, hypertension, and causes of infertility did not differ between the 2 groups. On multivariate analysis, diffuse polypoid appearance of the endometrial cavity on office hysteroscopy (hazard ratio [HR] 4.1; 95% CI 1.576-10.785), duration of infertility, (HR 4; 95% CI 1.279-12.562), and body mass index (HR 7.9; 95% CI 2.591-24.258) were found to be independent predictors of endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within polyps in infertile patients. Conclusion: When diffuse polypoid appearance of the endometrial cavity is detected in an infertile patient during office hysteroscopy, hysteroscopy-guided resection and endometrial curettage should be performed. The pathological specimen should be sent for histopathological evaluation to diagnose possible endometrial premalignancy/malignancy within polyps.
