ABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of patients with synchronous primary endometrial and fallopian tube cancers.Methods:
The clinical records of four cases of synchronous primary endometrial and fallopian tube cancers from Jiangxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital between October 2008 and October 2013 were reviewed. The follow-up was performed in all patients. The date of last contact was June 30, 2014.Results:
The preoperative diagnosis for four cases was endometrial cancer. Two of them underwent extensive abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy and para-aortic lymph node biopsy, and the other two cases underwent extrafascial abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy and para-aortic lymph node biopsy. The postoperative diagnosis for four cases was stage IA endometrioid adenocarcinoma and stage IA/IB fallopian tube adenocarcinoma. Three patients received 1-3 cycles of chemotherapy of docetaxel plus platinum, and one patient didn't receive any chemotherapy. The follow-up time was 38-71 months. All patinets remained tumor-free survival by June 30, 2014.Conclusion:
The patients with synchronous primary stage I endometrial cancer and stage I fallopian tube cancer has a good prognosis, and the extensive/extrafascial abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy and para-aortic lymph node biopsy are appropriate surgical procedures for these patients. The necessity of postoperative chemotherapy should be further explored.
