ABSTRACT
Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological features and rational treatment of primary fallopian tube cancer(PFTC).Methods The clinical and pathological data of 39 patients with primary fallopian tube cancer from January 2006 to July 2016 in Beijing Tongren Hospital of Capital University were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were 39 cases of undifferentiated carcinoma,including 1 case of undifferentiated and transitional cell carcinoma,37 cases of undifferentiated adenocarcinoma,or 29 cases of simple adenocarcinoma and 10 cases of mixed type.Among them,7 cases were treated with clear cell carcinoma,endometriosis in 2 cases,combined with transitional cell carcinoma in 1 case.Extra-pelvic metastases were the most common site of the omentum with 17 cases.The preoperative test CA125 was increased in 13 cases and 38 patients received postoperative chemotherapy.The 5-year overall survival rate of 39 patients was 51.3%.Univariate analysis showed that postoperative pathologic stage(Ⅰ~Ⅱ vs.Ⅲ,P<0.001),intraoperative residual lesion size(P<0.001),omentum metastasis(P<0.001),ovarian metastasis(P=0.034),retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis(P=0.018)and preoperative CA125 elevation(P=0.002)were associated with prognosis,while age(P=0.310)and pathological grade(P=0.663)were not associated with prognosis.Multivariate analysis showed that the number of patients with postoperative lymph node metastasis(P=0.018)and preoperative CA125 elevation(P=0.002)were correlated with prognosis(HR=1.202,95% CI:2.354~63.290,P=0.003) and pathological stage(HR=3.810,95% CI:1.202~12.079,P=0.023).They were associated with prognosis as independent prognostic factors.Conclusion Tumor pathologic staging and omentum metastasis are important prognostic factors influencing the prognosis of patients with primary fallopian tube cancer.Early diagnosis and complete operation can improve the prognosis of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of hysteroscopy in diagnostic curettage, the incidence of complications and preventive measures in senile women. Methods One hundred and thirteen senile patients who underwent hysteroscopy from January 2002 to December 2007 were recruited in the study, and one hundred and fifty-seven non senile patients were selected as control group. All the patients were operated with diagnostic curettage and hysteroseopy. The success rate of hysteroscopy operation, the incidence of complications and control effect were recorded and compared between two groups. Results The success rate of hysteroscopy operation was 88. 5% (100/113) in the senile group and 100% (157/157) in the non senile group, and there was significant differenee(P <0. 01). The incidence of complications was higher in the senile women group than that in the non senile women group (P< 0. 01). In senile group, the accuracy of diagnostic curettage and hysteroscopy was higher than diagnostic curettage alone, and the success rate was 95.5% (64/67)in estrogen group and 69.6%(32/46) in blank control group (P<0. 01) ,which indicated that estrogen was positively related with the success rate of operation. Compared with misoprostol, estradiol-pretreatment operation was safer and had higher success rate. Conclusions It is safe and feasible to perform hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage for older women, though it has higher incidence of complications and lower success rate compared with non senile women. Hysteroscopy and diagnostic curettage are more accurate than diagnostic curettage alone, and it is a good choice to apply estradiol before operation.
