ABSTRACT

Purpose:To study prognostic factors of younger women's eptihelial ovarian neoplasms.Methods: From Jan. 1980 to Dec. 1992, there were 86 cases of younger women's epithelial ovarian carcinoma in our hospital. We studied serveral prognostic factors retrospectively.Results:In this setting, 2 year survival rate were 79.07%, 5 year survival rate were 54.65%. There were 49 cases with stage Ⅰ and 41 cases with grade Ⅰ. No recurrence was found in 4 patients who preserved ovarian function. Cox model multifactor results showed that grade, residual tumor size and the method of surgery were prognostic factors( P 0 05). The pathological type, FIGO staging, grade, residual tumor size, the method of surgery were important factors according to unifactor analyze ( P
