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 III ovarian high-grade serous cancer: a Turkish Gynecologic Oncology Group study(2018) Ayhan, Ali; Ozkan, Nazli Topfedaisi; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Celik, Husnu; Dede, Murat; Akbayir, Ozgur; Gungorduk, Kemal; Sahin, Hanifi; Haberal, Ali; Gungor, Tayfun; Arvas, Macit; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; 29185270Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of lymph node ratio (LNR) in patients with stage III ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Methods: A multicenter, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with ovarian HGSC at 6 gynecologic oncology centers in Turkey. A total of 229 node-positive women with stage III ovarian HGSC who had undergone maximal or optimal cytoreductive surgery plus systematic lymphadenectomy followed by paclitaxel plus carboplatin combination chemotherapy were included. LNR, defined as the percentage of positive lymph nodes (LNs) to total nodes recovered, was stratified into 3 groups: LNR1 (<10%), LNR2 (10%<= LNR<50%), and LNR3 (>= 50%). Kaplan-Meier method was used to generate survival data. Factors predictive of outcome were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models. Results: Thirty-one women (13.6%) were classified as stage IIIA1, 15 (6.6%) as stage IIIB, and 183 (79.9%) as stage IIIC. The median age at diagnosis was 56 (range, 18-87), and the median duration of follow-up was 36 months (range, 1-120 months). For the entire cohort, the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 52.8%. An increased LNR was associated with a decrease in 5-year OS from 65.1% for LNR1, 42.5% for LNR2, and 25.6% for LNR3, respectively (p<0.001). In multivariate analysis, women with LNR >= 0.50 were 2.7 times more likely to die of their tumors (hazard ratio [HR]= 2.7; 95% confidence interval [CI]= 1.42-5.18; p<0.001). Conclusion: LNR seems to be an independent prognostic factor for decreased OS in stage III ovarian HGSC patients.
