Item Impact of lymph node ratio in patients with stage IIIC endometrial carcinoma treated with postoperative radiotherapy(2021) Onal, Cem; Sari, Sezin Yuce; Yavas, Guler; Guler, Ozan Cem; Yiğit, Ecem; Oymak, Ezgi; Gultekin, Melis; Yildiz, Ferah; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 34355983; D-5195-2014Aim: To evaluate the prognostic value of the lymph node ratio (LNR) and other clinicopathological factors in patients with stage IIIC endometrial cancer. Methods: Factors affecting overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed in 397 patients with stage IIIC endometrial cancer treated with postoperative radiotherapy. Patients undergoing the removal of at least ten lymph nodes were included in the study. Results: The 5-year OS and PFS rates were 58% and 52%, respectively, with a median follow-up time of 35.7 months. The LNR cutoff value was 9.6%. In the multivariate analysis, advanced age (>= 60 years), grade III tumor, presence of cervical stromal invasion, higher LNR and lack of adjuvant chemotherapy were independent predictors for worse OS and PFS. Conclusion: The LNR is an independent predictor for OS and PFS in patients with stage IIIC endometrial cancer treated with postoperative radiotherapy.Item Treatment outcomes of endometrial cancer patients with paraaortic lymph node metastasis: a multi-institutional analysis(2019) Onal, Cem; Yildirim, Berna Akkus; Sari, Sezin Yuce; Yavas, Guler; Gultekin, Melis; Guler, Ozan Cem; Yildiz, Ferah; Akyurek, Serap; 0000-0002-2742-9021; 0000-0001-6908-3412; 30640689; D-5195-2014; AAC-5654-2020Objective To analyze the prognostic factors and treatment outcomes in endometrial cancer patients with paraaortic lymph node metastasis. Methods Data from four centers were collected retrospectively for 92 patients with endometrial cancer treated with combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy or adjuvant radiotherapy alone postoperatively, delivered by either the sandwich or sequential method. Prognostic factors affecting overall survival and progression-free survival were analyzed. Results The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 35 % and 33 %, respectively, after a median follow-up time of 33 months. The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were significantly higher in patients receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy postoperatively compared with patients treated with adjuvant radiotherapy alone (P < 0.001and P < 0.001, respectively). In a subgroup analysis of patients treated with adjuvant combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were significantly higher in patients receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy via the sandwich method compared with patients treated with sequential chemotherapy and radiotherapy (P = 0.02and P = 0.03, respectively). In the univariate analysis, in addition to treatment strategy, pathology, depth of myometrial invasion, and tumor grade were significant prognostic factors for both overall survival and progression-free survival. In the multivariate analysis, grade III disease, myometrial invasion greater than or equal to 50%, and adjuvant radiotherapy alone were negative predictors for both overall survival and progression-free survival. Conclusion We demonstrated that adjuvant combined treatment including radiotherapyand chemotherapy significantly increases overall survival and progression-free survival rates compared with postoperative pelvic and paraaortic radiotherapy.
