    The prognostic significance of stage I ovarian clear cell and endometrioid carcinomas arising from endometriotic cysts: is it a myth?

    PurposeThe aim of this study was to determine the clinicopathologic features and the prognostic significance of Stage I ovarian clear cell and endometrioid carcinomas arising from endometriotic cysts.Materials and methodsPatients with either Stage I ovarian clear cell or endometrioid carcinoma were divided into three groups. *Group 1: Patients with cancers arising from endometriotic cysts *Group 2: Patients with ovarian and pelvic endometriosis *Group 3: Patients without endometriosis Patient characteristics (overall survival and disease-free survival) were compared between groups.ResultsOf the 78 patients who participated in this study, 39 were in group 1, 13 were in group 2, and 26 were in group 3. The mean age in groups 1, 2, and 3 were 46years, 54years, and 48years, respectively (p=0.39). Tumoral characteristics, including capsule rupture, positive cytology, grade, and the presence of synchronous endometrial cancer were similar in both groups. The 5-year overall survival rate in groups 1, 2, and 3 were 100, 90, and 93%, respectively (p=0.4). Moreover, the recurrence rates did not differ significantly between groups. Furthermore, subgroup analysis of clear cell carcinoma and endometrioid adenocarcinoma separately showed no effect of endometriosis on disease-free survival (DFS) or overall survival (OS).ConclusionClear cell or endometrioid ovarian carcinoma arising from ovarian and/or pelvic endometriosis shares the same clinicopathologic characteristics with their counterparts that do not arise from endometriosis and patients have similar overall and disease-free survival.

    The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate Stage IIIA endometrioid type endometrial carcinomas (ECCs) and to analyze clinical and pathological determinants of prognosis in three tertiary hospitals between January 2007 and January 2017. Forty-seven patients with a median age of 61 (range: 31 to 76) years were diagnosed with Stage IIIA disease. Median follow-up was 45 (range: 6 to 116) months. The five-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 57.2%, and the overall survival (OS) rate was 59.7%. In the univariate analysis, age and grade of the disease (1-2 versus 3) disease were found to be significant factors for DFS. Univariate analysis also revealed the presence of cervical stromal involvement and grade of the disease were associated with decreased OS. In the multivariate analysis, however, only patients with an advanced histological grade had a reduced risk for OS (hazard ratio [FIR] 2.9; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.020-8.615; p= 0.040). In conclusion, histological grade seems to be an independent prognostic factor for OS in patients with Stage IIIA ECCs.
