Abstract
Background/aim: Epithelial ovarian cancer is the second most prevalent type of gynecological cancer. We aimed to investigate prognostic factors related to survival in patient with 2014 FIGO stage IIIC high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).
Materials and methods: Two hundred fifty eight patients were evaluated retrospectively. The absence of a visible tumor was determined as maximum cytoreduction, and a residual tumor size of 1 cm or less was determined as optimal cytoreduction. Patients who underwent cytoreduction followed by a combination of platinum and taxane adjuvant chemotherapy were included. Exclusion criteria for the study were patients taking neoadjuvant chemotherapy and those with suboptimal surgery.
Results: Optimal cytoreduction was performed in 107 and maximal cytoreduction was performed in 151 patients. The five-year PFS rate was 27% and the five-year DSS rate was 76%. While high ascites volume and optimal cytoreduction were identified as independent prognostic factors for disease failure, only optimal cytoreduction was an independent prognostic factor for survival.
Conclusion: The maximal cytoreduction is improves PFS and DSS in patients with 2014 FIGO stage IIIC HGSOC as our study results. Therefore, maximum surgical effort and radical cytoreductive procedures should be performed.
期刊介绍:
Turkish Journal of Medical sciences is a peer-reviewed comprehensive resource that provides critical up-to-date information on the broad spectrum of general medical sciences. The Journal intended to publish original medical scientific papers regarding the priority based on the prominence, significance, and timeliness of the findings. However since the audience of the Journal is not limited to any subspeciality in a wide variety of medical disciplines, the papers focusing on the technical details of a given medical subspeciality may not be evaluated for publication.
