ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Image-guided percutaneous pelvic procedures often play an important role in the management of women with gynecologic cancers. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the utilization of and indications for these procedures, and quantify their impact on patient management.METHODS:
IRB-approved retrospective record review of percutaneous pelvic procedures requested by gynecologic oncology, 2005 to 2015. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were performed.RESULTS:
392 pelvic procedures, including fluid aspiration, core biopsy, and fine needle aspiration, were performed in 225 women. Procedures were performed under sonographic guidance (303/392, 77.30%), CT guidance (87/392, 22.19%), or both (2/392, 0.51%). Pathology results included no specimen sent (157/392, 40.05%), new cancer diagnosis (55/392, 14.03%), recurrence or metastasis of known primary cancer (107/392, 27.30%), benign tissue (67/392, 17.09%), and nondiagnostic (6/392, 1.53%). In terms of management, some procedures led to oncologic surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy (158/392, 40.31%), cessation of oncologic treatment (36/392, 9.18%), or treatment of infection (10/392, 2.55%). Many procedures were therapeutic (178/392, 45.41%), while a minority were performed for genomics (1/392, 0.26%) or did not impact clinical management (9/392, 2.30%). The number of procedures per year increased over time during the period of data collection. Date of service was a significant positive predictor of a purely therapeutic procedure (OR 1.69 [95 % CI 1.44-1.98], p < 0.0001) and a significant negative predictor of a malignant diagnosis (OR 0.72 [95 % CI 0.64-0.81], p < 0.0001), for each year later in the 10-year cycle.CONCLUSION:
In this single institution study, we identified a trend toward increased utilization of image-guided percutaneous pelvic interventions in women with gynecologic cancers. The case mix has shifted over the past 10 years, with procedures for symptom management constituting a larger proportion and diagnostic procedures constituting a smaller proportion of procedures over time.Palavras-chave
