RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Obesity is known as a risk factor for endometrial cancer (EC). Only a few studies investigate the relationship between sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity and EC. In this study, our aim was to investigate the relationship between the cross-sectional imaging-based body composition parameters and the disease prognosis in low-grade (LG) and high-grade (HG) EC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study in women diagnosed with low and high-grade EC between January 2014 and May 2022 who had abdominal MRI and thorax CT as a part of routine staging workup. We used the skeletal muscle index (SMI) at the level of the third lumbar vertebra to assess sarcopenia on CT. The T2-weighted sequence at the level of the L2-L3 intervertebral disc is used for visceral fat area (VFA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), and total fat area (TFA). Two radiologists in consensus, calculated the parameters. RESULTS: A total of 250 EC patients (144 low-grade EC, 106 high-grade EC).Sarcopenia was observed in 122 (48.8%) patients, and sarcopenic obesity was found in 82 (32.8%) patients. Although there was an increase in VFA in cases with high-grade EC, there was no significant difference in terms of SFA. Additionally, the frequency of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity was higher in cases with high-grade EC. There was no association between sarcopenia and age, histological type, FIGO staging, or comorbidity in the univariate analysis. However, BMI was found to be associated with sarcopenia. CONCLUSIONS: Quantitative radiological measurement of sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, and body fat composition can be used as novel parameters in the prediction of disease prognosis in endometrial cancer.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of adjuvant treatments, factors influencing recurrence, and survival data in patients with 2023 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IIB endometrial cancer. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with endometrial cancer who underwent surgery between 2005 and 2022 at seven different centers in Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological, and survival data were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: Among 7323 patients, 565 (7.7%) were classified as 2023 FIGO stage IIB based on pathological results. Of 565 patients, 214 were followed without receiving adjuvant treatment, while 335 (95.4%) received adjuvant radiotherapy, and 16 (4.6%) received radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The locoregional recurrence rate was higher in patients with a tumor size >4 cm (p=0.038) and myometrial invasion >50% (p=0.045). In patients with distant metastasis, the recurrence rate was lower in those with myometrial invasion <50% compared with myometrial invasion ≥50% (p=0.031). The impact of adjuvant treatment on endometrial cancer patients revealed no significant differences for both disease free survival (p=0.85) and overall survival (p=0.54). Subgroup analyses showed that in patients with deep myometrial invasion, adjuvant treatment was associated with a significant increase in overall survival (p=0.044), but there was no effect on disease-free survival (p=0.12). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with stage IIB endometrial cancer with myometrial invasion ≥50% were more likely to have locoregional and distant metastases. Adjuvant radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy did not demonstrate an overall survival benefit in these patients.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Endometrioid carcinoma, originating in the endometrium glandular cells, is often detected early and treated by surgery. However, post-treatment life quality remains poorly studied, explicitly focusing on sleep quality, fatigue, and depression. METHODS: In this cross-sectional, observational study, 147 female patients with endometrioid-type endometrial carcinoma were evaluated using standardised tools-Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Patients were categorised based on sleep quality and depression levels. The study employed correlation and regression analyses to examine the relationships among these variables. RESULTS: No correlations were found between sociodemographic or lifestyle variables and sleep quality, fatigue, or depression (P > 0.05). A strong correlation was identified between PSQI and FAS (r = 0.623; P < 0.001), PSQI and BDI (r = 0.291; P < 0.001), and FAS and BDI (r = 0.413; P < 0.001). Fatigue and tumour grade were potential predictors of poor sleep. Sleep quality and depression predicted fatigue, while only fatigue was a predictor for depression. Radiotherapy and external radiation rates were notably higher in the mild depression group. CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests an imperative for integrated multi-disciplinary approaches that focus on medical and psychological aspects of patient care to enhance long-term well-being and quality of life.

RESUMEN

AIM: We planned this study to assess endometrial cancer (EC) patients who had late metastasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study constituted a review of the records of patients who were diagnosed with EC and underwent hysterectomy at the Gynecologic Oncology Clinic between 1996 and 2018. Relapses occurring after the first three years following primary treatment of EC are considered late recurrences. Post-relapse survival (PRS) refers to the time to the last follow-up or the patient's death after relapse. RESULTS: Late metastases were identified in 42 patients, 20 (47.6%) of whom had locoregional recurrence and 22 of whom (52.4%) had extrapelvic recurrence. Median disease-free survival (DFS) times were 61 (range: 43-78) and 65 (range: 48-81) months for the groups with locoregional and extrapelvic recurrences, respectively (P = 0.462). The 5-year PRS rate for the patients was 61.1%, with 63.8% having locoregional and 59.4% having extrapelvic late metastasis (P = 0.969). CONCLUSION: Among the patients with late metastases, those with endometrioid type EC were found to have a better prognosis. It has been shown that locoregional or extrapelvic organ recurrence does not significantly affect survival in patients with late relapse. Although our results are not statistically significant for cases of locoregional late metastases, surgical resection increases survival rates.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The main feature of adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCT) is their capacity to secrete hormones, with nearly all of them capable of synthesizing oestradiol. The primary goal of this study is to identify synchronized endometrial pathologies, particularly endometrial cancer, in AGCT patients who had undergone a hysterectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study cohort comprised retrospectively of 316 AGCT patients from 10 tertiary gynecological oncology centers. AGCT surgery consisted of bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, hysterectomy, peritoneal cytology, omentectomy, and the excision of any suspicious lesion. The median tumor size value was used to define the relationship between tumor size and endometrial cancer. The relationship between each value and endometrial cancer was evaluated. RESULTS: Endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia, or hyperplasia with complex atypia, was detected in 7.3% of patients, and endometrial cancer in 3.1% of patients. Age, menopausal status, tumor size, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage, ascites, and CA-125 level were not statistically significant factors to predict endometrial cancer. There was no endometrial cancer under the age of 40, and 97.8% of women diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia were over the age of 40. During the menopausal period, the endometrial cancer risk was 4.5%. Developing endometrial cancer increased to 12.1% from 3.2% when the size of the tumor was >150 mm in menopausal patients (p = 0.036). CONCLUSION: Endometrial hyperplasia, or cancer, occurs in approximately 30% of AGCT patients. Patients diagnosed with AGCT, especially those older than 40 years, should be evaluated for endometrial pathologies. There may be a relationship between tumor size and endometrial cancer, especially in menopausal patients.

RESUMEN

AIM: The aim of our study is to examine the clinical, surgical, and pathological factors of stage 1C adult granulosa cell tumor (AGCT) patients and to investigate the effects of adjuvant therapy on recurrence and survival rates in this patient group. METHODS: Out of a total of 415 AGCT patients treated by 10 tertiary oncology centers participating in the study, 63 (15.2%) patients with 2014 FIGO stage IC constituted the study group. The FIGO 2014 system was used for staging. Patient group who received adjuvant chemotherapy was compared with patient group who did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy in terms of disease-free survival (DFS), and disease-specific survival. RESULTS: The 5-year DFS of the study cohort was 89%, and the 10-year DFS was 85%. Those who received adjuvant chemotherapy and those who did not were similar in terms of clinical, surgical and pathological factors, except for peritoneal cytology. In the univariate analysis, none of the clinical, surgical or pathological factors were significant for DFS. Adjuvant chemotherapy and type of treatment protocol had no impact on DFS. CONCLUSION: Adjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with improved DFS and overall survival in stage IC AGCT. Multicentric and randomized controlled studies are needed for early stage AGCT in order to confirm these results and reach accurate conclusions.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To define the clinical, histopathological features and the prognostic factors affecting survival in patients with adult granulosa cell tumors of the ovary (AGCT). METHODS: A 322 patients whose final pathologic outcome was AGCT treated at nine tertiary oncology centers between 1988 and 2021 participated in the study. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 51.3±11.8 years and ranged from 21 to 82 years. According to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2014, 250 (77.6%) patients were stage I, 24 (7.5%) patients were stage II, 20 (6.2%) patients were stage III, and 3 (7.8%) were stage IV. Lymphadenectomy was added to the surgical procedure in 210 (65.2%) patients. Lymph node involvement was noted in seven (3.3%) patients. Peritoneal cytology was positive in 19 (5.9%) patients, and 13 (4%) had metastases in the omentum. Of 285 patients who underwent hysterectomy, 19 (6.7%) had complex hyperplasia with atypia/endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia, and 8 (2.8%) had grade 1 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. It was found that 93 (28.9%) patients in the study group received adjuvant treatment. Bleomycin, etoposide, cisplatin was the most commonly used chemotherapy protocol. The median follow-up time of the study group was 41 months (range, 1-276 months). It was noted that 34 (10.6%) patients relapsed during this period, and 9 (2.8%) patients died because of the disease. The entire cohort had a 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) of 86% and a 5-year disease-specific survival of 98%. Recurrences were observed only in the pelvis in 13 patients and the extra-abdominal region in 7 patients. The recurrence rate increased 6.168-fold in patients with positive peritoneal cytology (95% confidence interval [CI]=1.914-19.878; p=0.002), 3.755-fold in stage II-IV (95% CI=1.275-11.063; p=0.016), and 2.517-fold in postmenopausal women (95% CI=1.017-6.233; p=0.046) increased. CONCLUSION: In this study, lymph node involvement was detected in 3.3% of patients with AGCT. Therefore, it was concluded that lymphadenectomy can be avoided in primary surgical treatment. Positive peritoneal cytology, stage, and menopausal status were independent prognostic predictors of DFS.

RESUMEN

To investigate the risk factors for occult omental metastasis and the effect of omentectomy on the survival of type 2 endometrial cancer (EC) patients. This study enrolled patients who were diagnosed with high-risk (grade 3, serous, clear cell, undifferentiated, carcinosarcoma, or mixed type) EC between 2000 and 2021 and underwent surgery in our center. Data from 482 patients were analyzed retrospectively. Omentectomy was performed in 405 (84.0%) patients. Omental metastases were detected in 61 (12.7%) patients. Eighteen (29.5%) of these metastases were occult. Adnexal involvement, malignant cytology, and peritoneal spread were independent risk factors for omental metastasis. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 59.5% in patients who underwent omentectomy and 64.7% in those who did not (P = 0.558). In patients with and without omental metastases, the overall 5-year OS rates were 34.9% and 63.5%, respectively (P < 0.001). The 5-year OS rates of patients with a normal omentum, gross tumors, and occult metastases were 63.5%, 26.9%, and 52.5%, respectively (P < 0.001). Omental metastases is not uncommon in type II endometrial cancer; approximately one third of patients have occult metastases. Factors - positive cytology, adnexal involvement, and peritoneal involvement are associated with higher probability of omental metastases.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of lymphovascular space invasion on recurrence and disease-free survival in patients with low-risk endometrial cancer. METHODS: The study included patients with stage 1A, grade 1-2 endometrioid endometrial cancer who underwent a total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy. Independent prognostic predictors of endometrial cancer recurrence were assessed using the Cox regression model. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify the predictors of distant recurrence. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to describe survival curves, and the log-rank test was used to compare the differences in survival curves. RESULTS: A total of 189 patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 24 (12.7%) had lymphovascular space invasion. The median follow-up time was 60 (3-137) months. Distant recurrence was present in 11 of 22 patients who developed recurrence. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 5-year disease-free survival rates of patients with lymphovascular space invasion(+) and lymphovascular space invasion(-) were 62.5 and 91.9%, respectively, which were significantly lower (p<0.001). In multivariate Cox regression analysis, the presence of lymphovascular space invasion (p<0.001) and age ≥60 years (p=0.017) remained as prognostic factors for reduced disease-free survival. In binary logistic regression analysis, only lymphovascular space invasion (adjusted OR=13, 95%CI=1.456-116.092, p=0.022) was a prognostic factor for distant recurrence. CONCLUSION: lymphovascular space invasion is a prognostic risk factor for recurrence and distant metastasis and also a predictor of poorer disease-free survival outcomes in low-risk endometrial cancer.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: This study was carried out to investigate the differentiation of mucinous borderline ovarian tumor from mucinous ovarian carcinoma using magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS: We evaluated 77 women patients who underwent abdominal magnetic resonance imaging due to pelvic mass. magnetic resonance imaging was reviewed by an experienced radiologist. A total of 70 women patients were included in the study. The magnetic resonance imaging features were retrospectively evaluated and compared between the two pathologies. RESULTS: There was no difference between the two groups in terms of maximum tumor size. Age at diagnosis was 56.29±11.92 in the mucinous ovarian carcinoma group and 44.74±13.60 in the mucinous borderline ovarian tumor group (p<0.05). A significant difference was found between the two groups, and it was observed that mucinous borderline ovarian tumors appeared in the younger age group compared to mucinous ovarian carcinomas. Presence of ascites, peritoneal dissemination, lymphadenopathy, and mural nodules was found significantly more frequently in mucinous ovarian carcinomas than in mucinous borderline ovarian tumors. Honeycomb appearance was found more frequently in mucinous borderline ovarian tumor patients than in mucinous ovarian carcinoma patients. CONCLUSION: magnetic resonance imaging findings of these two pathologies overlapped considerably. Compared with mucinous borderline ovarian tumors, mucinous ovarian carcinomas frequently had mural nodules larger than 5 mm, larger tumor size, peritoneal dissemination, and abnormal ascites.

RESUMEN

AIM: We aimed to clarify the clinical value of P53 index in patients with early low-risk endometrial cancer (EC) and find an optimal cut-off value of P53 index for predicting the recurrence of these patients. METHODS: The clinicopathological data of 157 patients with early low-risk EC (stage 1A with grade 1 or 2 endometrioid EC) were analyzed. The optimal cut-off value of the P53 index was calculated by the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and Youden index. Cox regression model was used to evaluate the independent prognostic predictors of recurrence of EC. Then all patients were divided into two groups according to the optimal cut-off value of the P53 index. Differences of the clinicopathological parameters between the two groups were compared. RESULTS: Multivariate analysis showed age PR (p = 0.020) and P53 (p = 0.001) were independent prognostic factors for the recurrence of EC. The value of P53 index was found to be the optimal cut-off point of 17.5% in estimating the recurrence of EC. The 5-year recurrence-free survival rates of patients in the low P53 index group (<17.5%) and the high P53 index group (≥17.5%) were 94.6% and 65.4% (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: It has been revealed that the P53 index is a prognostic factor for recurrence in early low-risk EC. The optimal cut-off value of P53 index may contribute to the postoperative individualized treatment options for early low-risk EC patients.

RESUMEN

Only 2% of all breast cancers are metastatic, making them extremely uncommon. They are frequently mistaken for a primary breast tumor. Although it has been observed, metastatic spread from primary uterine cancers is extremely uncommon. In the literature, our case represents the fourth endometroid adenocarcinoma metastasis from the uterus. Clinical, pathological, and immunohistochemical examination and management of metastatic endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the uterus' extragenital organ were described in this 69-year-old patient's case. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on a breast biopsy taken from the patient who underwent therapy and discovered a breast mass two years later. Metastatic endometrial adenocarcinoma was diagnosed with negative signs pointing to mammaglobin, GCDFP-15 and GATA3 breasts and markers indicating endometroid adenocarcinomas such as p53, PAX8 and VIMENTIN support. As a result, a thorough clinical history is needed, with special attention to diagnoses of concurrent or prior malignancies, along with clinical examination, appropriate radiological evaluation, and immunohistochemistry. This is necessary to prevent unnecessary surgery, to provide appropriate systemic treatment, to ensure correct diagnosis, and to manage treatment.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: There is not enough data in the literature regarding Her-2 overexpression in uterine carcinosarcomas or its association with the prognosis. The aim of this study was to determine the Her-2 overexpression rate in uterine carcinosarcoma and to evaluate its relationship with the prognosis. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Her-2 protein and gene status were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), respectively, in hysterectomy specimens from 51 patients with uterine carcinosarcoma. RESULTS: Her-2 protein expression in the epithelial component was negative in 42 patients (score 0 in 33 cases, score (+1) in 9 cases), score (+2) in 7 patients and score (+3) in 2 patients. None of the patients had Her-2 protein expression within the sarcomatous component of the tumors. Her-2 gene was not amplified in epithelial or mesenchymal tumor areas according to the FISH method. There was no difference between the Her-2 overexpression negative and positive groups in terms of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Her-2 overexpression was significantly higher in tumors of patients diagnosed at 65 years or older (p=0.046). CONCLUSION: In our study, no relationship could be shown between Her-2 overexpression and prognosis in uterine carcinosarcoma. More comprehensive studies are needed to illustrate the relationship between Her-2 overexpression and carcinosarcoma prognosis.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to evaluate risk factors associated with high-grade cervical intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in patients undergoing a second cervical excision procedure due to positive surgical margins and to create a prediction model for residual disease. METHODS: This study included patients with HSIL positive surgical margins following loop electrosurgical excision procedures (LEEP) between March 2015 and August 2019. HSIL in the second cervical excision pathology in these patients was accepted as residual disease. For residual disease prediction, a multivariate logistic regression and stepwise elimination analysis of 14 variables including demographic characteristics, clinical characteristics, pathology results and HPV genotypes of the patients was performed. RESULTS: Second cervical excision procedures were performed in 290 patients 85(29.4%) of these patients had CIN 2 (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) and 205 (70.6%) had CIN 3. In the second excision procedure, 166 patients (57.2%) had ≤CIN 1, 124 patients (42.8%) had ≥CIN2. The prediction model of residual disease includes only 3 variables out of the 14 different clinical characteristics (AUC=0.605 [0.539-0.671]). These variables are gravida (adjusted OR: 1.15 [0.97-1.38], P=0.107), CIN2-3 presence in the endocervical canal in the first LEEP specimen (adjusted OR: 1.52 [0.94-2.47], P=0.091) and the presence of HR-HPV except 16/18 lesions (adjusted OR: 0.64 [0.38-1.06], P=0.083). CONCLUSIONS: A prediction model was designed with our data, from variables reported to be risk factors for residual disease in previous studies. While this model was statistically significant, it was poor at distinguishing residual disease. A prediction model can be designed to guide clinicians with future studies.

RESUMEN

AIM: Our study investigated the lymph node (LN) features most affecting survival in endometrial adenocancer (EAC) patients with LN involvement. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study was based on a review of the records of patients diagnosed with EAC, who underwent hysterectomy and systematic retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy at the gynecologic oncology clinics of three centers between January 2009 and January 2019. RESULTS: A total of 120 stage IIIC endometrioid-type EAC patients were included in the study. The patients were divided into small (<10 mm) and large (≥10 mm) groups according to the size of the largest metastatic LN. Patients were divided into single and multiple metastasis groups according to the number of metastatic LNs. The patients were divided into pelvic and paraaortic groups according to the location of the metastatic LNs. The effects of prognostic factors on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated by Cox regression analysis. Large-sized metastatic LNs were an independent prognostic factor for DFS (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.4, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.-26.2; P = 0.035) and OS (HR = 9.0, 95% CI: 1.1-68.0; P = 0.033). The number (P = 0.093 for DFS, P = 0.911 for OS) and location (P = 0.217 for DFS, P = 0.124 for OS) of metastatic LNs were not independent prognostic factors for DFS or OS. CONCLUSIONS: Large-sized metastatic LNs were an independent prognostic factor for survival in patients with stage IIIC EAC. Larger prospective studies including similar patient populations are required to verify these findings.

RESULTS: There was no difference between the two groups in terms of maximum tumor size. Age at diagnosis was 56.29±11.92 in the mucinous ovarian carcinoma group and 44.74±13.60 in the mucinous borderline ovarian tumor group (p<0.05). A significant difference was found between the two groups, and it was observed that mucinous borderline ovarian tumors appeared in the younger age group compared to mucinous ovarian carcinomas. Presence of ascites, peritoneal dissemination, lymphadenopathy, and mural nodules was found significantly more frequently in mucinous ovarian carcinomas than in mucinous borderline ovarian tumors. Honeycomb appearance was found more frequently in mucinous borderline ovarian tumor patients than in mucinous ovarian carcinoma patients. CONCLUSION: magnetic resonance imaging findings of these two pathologies overlapped considerably. Compared with mucinous borderline ovarian tumors, mucinous ovarian carcinomas frequently had mural nodules larger than 5 mm, larger tumor size, peritoneal dissemination, and abnormal ascites.

RESUMEN

Objective: The aim was to evaluate vaginal brachytherapy (VB) after surgery in early-stage endometrial cancer. Materials and Methods: The patients with Stage I-II endometrial adeno-cancer operated between 1998 and 2018 and whose adjuvant therapies had been arranged were evaluated retrospectively. Results: A total of 618 patients were enrolled. In 409 patients in the low-risk group, the vaginal, pelvic recurrence, and distant metastasis rates were found to be higher in the VB group. When the results of 112 patients in the intermediate-risk group were evaluated, there was no statistically significant difference between the vaginal, pelvic recurrence, and distance metastasis rates. In 89 patients in the intermediate-high risk group, vaginal recurrence rates were 0%, 4.8%, 0%, and 25% for VB, external beam radiotherapy, combination radiotherapy, and the follow-up groups, respectively (p=0.010), and pelvic recurrence rates were found to be 18.2%, 0%, 1.9% and 0% (p=0.036). Distant metastasis rates were 0%, 0%, 9.6% and 0% (p=0.229). When the overall survival in all groups was examined, no significant difference was found between the groups. Conclusion: In conclusion, no adjuvant treatment is a proper approach for low-risk patients. Brachytherapy can be considered a suitable option for the intermediate risk group. Combined treatments instead of VB in the high-intermediate risk group would be preferred in terms of local control.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Aggressive angiomyxoma is a type of mesenchymal tumor occurring predominantly in the pelvic and perineal region. The aim of our study was to reveal our experience with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) treatment in patients with angiomyxoma and provide a comprehensive review of management. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This study is a case-series including seven female patients diagnosed with aggressive angiomyxoma from a single institution, between 2012 and 2020. Follow-up after surgery was ranged between 2-45 months with an average of 17.6 months. Resection was performed in all patients without any complications, and five had received GnRH analogue (Goserelin acetate) therapy after surgery. Immunohistochemistry analyses showed positivity for smooth muscle actin and desmin in all cases, while both estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) positivity were identified in 6 patients. None of the seven patients had recurrence during follow up period. CONCLUSION: The mean treatment of aggressive angiomyxoma is surgery, and the use of GnHR analogues in cases with positive ER and PR may be effective in preventing recurrence. KEY WORDS: Aggressive Angiomyxoma, Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone, Soft Tissue Neoplasm.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: We asked why endometrial cancer sometimes vanishes. METHODS: A total of 454 patients diagnosed with endometrioid-type endometrial cancer (EC) (via endometrial sampling) and treated in our clinic over the past 5 years were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups: vanishing and residual, depending on whether a tumor was detected in the postoperative hysterectomy specimen. Patient age, numbers of pregnancies and deliveries, menopausal status, systemic disease status, hemogram parameters, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) grade, and invasion status (evident on magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) were compared between the groups. RESULTS: ECs vanished in 42 (9.25%) patients. The vanishing rates were 19.7% (37/187) in FIGO grade 1 patients, 2.1% (5/238) in grade 2 patients, and 0% (0/29) in grade 3 patients. The average age was lower in the vanishing than the residual group, but the premenopausal status and grade 1 tumor rates were higher (both p < 0.001). An absence of invasion (as revealed by MRI) was more common in the vanishing group (p < 0.001). No recurrence developed in the vanishing group, but recurrences were noted in 3.3% (14/412) of the residual group. There were no significant between-group differences in any of the numbers of pregnancies or births, systemic disease status, or hemogram parameters (all p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Vanishing EC is more likely in premenopausal women with endometrioid grade 1 EC (as revealed by endometrial biopsy) who lack myometrial invasion on MRI.

RESUMEN

Surgical treatment of low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma consists of hysterectomy. The role of oophorectomy is yet to be established. We aimed to examine the effect of preserving the ovaries on the pattern of recurrences in patients with stage I disease. Thirty-four patients with stage I low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma were retrospectively analysed. Based on ovarian preservation the whole cohort was divided into two groups. Recurrence (liver, lung, groin and bone) was detected in 4 (11.8%) cases. No significant differences in overall survival or disease-free survival (DFS) were observed between the ovarian preservation and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO) groups. Subset analysis revealed no significant difference in DFS between the ovarian preservation and BSO groups in the premenopausal arm. And also, the performance of pelvic (n = 2) or para-aortic lymphadenectomy (n = 6) or adjuvant hormonal therapy did not alter DFS significantly. The 5-year DFS rate for the group which received adjuvant radiotherapy was 62.5 and 94.4% for those which did not (p = .014). Preserving the ovaries had no adverse effect on the recurrence of stage I disease.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? Due to the rarity of the disease and the common postoperative diagnosis, only retrospective studies have been reported on low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. This disease is commonly diagnosed in premenopausal patients during the early stage. There is no consensus on preserving the ovaries, particularly in young patients, due to the tumour's hormonal characteristics and the risk of late recurrences.What do the results of this study add? Ovarian preservation had no effect on the recurrence of stage I low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. Lymphadenectomy and adjuvant hormonal treatment had no effect on DFS, and adjuvant radiotherapy decreased DFS in the current study.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? Ovarian preservation should be considered, to prevent the negative effects of surgical menopause, particularly in young patients.
