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.

Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with vaginal vault prolapse and underwent SSLF between January 2014 and May 2017. The subjective evaluation was performed according to the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I). The objective success rate at the end of 12 months was evaluated, and the Pelvic Organ Prolapse-Quantification System (POP-Q) Stage 0 or 1 was considered as a successful outcome. The effectiveness of the operation and the complication rates were evaluated during one-year follow-up. Results: A total of 26 patients were included in the study. Twelve patients (46.2%) underwent unilateral SSLF and 14 patients (53.8%) bilateral SSLF operation. At 12 months, the objective and subjective success rates were 100% and 100%, respectively. There was a significant difference between the unilateral and bilateral SSLF groups in terms of the operation time and intraoperative bleeding. After one-year follow-up, only three patients (11.3%) complained about mild gluteal pain. Conclusion: The suspension of the vagina to the unilateral or bilateral sacrospinous ligament was an effective and safe surgical method in patients with post-hysterectomy vaginal vault prolapse.Item Comparison of three different risk-stratification models for predicting lymph node involvement in endometrioid endometrial cancer clinically confined to the uterus(2017) Haberal, Ali; Kocaman, Eda; Dursun, Polat; Ayhan, Ali; Korkmaz, Vakkas; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; Yalcin, Ibrahim; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Sahin, Hanifi; Gungor, Tayfun; 0000-0002-1741-7035; 0000-0002-1486-7209; 0000-0002-7869-9662; 29027396; AAI-9331-2021; AAJ-5802-2021Objective: To compare the clinical validity of the Gynecologic Oncology Group-99 (GOG-99), the Mayo-modified and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO)-modified criteria for predicting lymph node (LN) involvement in women with endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC) clinically confined to the uterus. Methods: A total of 625 consecutive women who underwent comprehensive surgical staging for endometrioid EC clinically confined to the uterus were divided into low- and high-risk groups according to the GOG-99, the Mayo-modified, and the ESMO-modified criteria. Lymphovascular space invasion is the cornerstone of risk stratification according to the ESMO-modified criteria. These 3 risk stratification models were compared in terms of predicting LN positivity. Results: Systematic LN dissection was achieved in all patients included in the study. LN involvement was detected in 70 (11.2%) patients. LN involvement was correctly estimated in 51 of 70 LN-positive patients according to the GOG-99 criteria (positive likelihood ratio [LR+], 3.3; negative likelihood ratio [LR-], 0.4), 64 of 70 LN-positive patients according to the ESMO-modified criteria (LR+, 2.5; LR-, 0.13) and 69 of the 70 LN-positive patients according to the Mayo-modified criteria (LR+, 2.2; LR-, 0.03). The area under curve of the Mayo-modified, the GOG-99 and the ESMO-modified criteria was 0.763, 0.753, and 0.780, respectively. Conclusion: The ESMO-modified classification seems to be the risk-stratification model that most accurately predicts LN involvement in endometrioid EC clinically confined to the uterus. However, the Mayo-modified classification may be an alternative model to achieve a precise balance between the desire to prevent over-treatment and the ability to diagnose LN involvement.Item Does the primary route of spread have a prognostic significance in stage III non-serous epithelial ovarian cancer?(2018) Coban, Gonca; Sahin, Hanifi; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Yalcin, Ibrahim; Ozkan, Nazli Topfedaisi; Cuylan, Zeliha Firat; Erdem, Baki; Gungorduk, Kemal; Akbayir, Ozgur; Dede, Murat; Salman, Mustafa Coskun; Gungor, Tayfun; Ayhan, Ali; 0000-0002-3285-5519; 29506569; AAI-9974-2021Background: The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the prognosis of non-serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients with exclusively retroperitoneal lymph node (LN) metastases, and to compare the prognosis of these women to that of patients who had abdominal peritoneal involvement. Methods: A multicenter, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with stage III non-serous EOC at 7 gynecologic oncology centers in Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological and survival data were collected. The patients were divided into three groups based on the initial sites of disease: 1) the retroperitoneal (RP) group included patients who had positive pelvic and / or para-aortic LNs only. 2) The intraperitoneal (IP) group included patients with > 2 cm IP dissemination outside of the pelvis. These patients all had a negative LN status, 3) The IP / RP group included patients with > 2 cm IP dissemination outside of the pelvis as well as positive LN status. Survival data were compared with regard to the groups. Results: We identified 179 women with stage III non-serous EOC who were treated at 7 participating centers during the study period. The median age of the patients was 53 years, and the median duration of follow-up was 39 months. There were 35 (19.6%) patients in the RP group, 72 (40.2%) in the IP group and 72 (40.2%) in the IP/RP group. The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates for the RP, the IP, and IP/ RP groups were 66.4%, 37.6%, and 25.5%, respectively (p = 0.002). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate for the RP group was significantly longer when compared to those of the IP, and the IP/RP groups (74.4% vs. 54%, and 36%, respectively; p = 0.011). However, we were not able to define "RP only disease" as an independent prognostic factor for increased DFS or OS. Conclusions: Primary non-serous EOC patients with node-positive-only disease seem to have better survival when compared to those with extra-pelvic peritoneal involvement.
