RESUMO

Endometrioid ovarian adenocarcinoma is a common subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer that can arise on a background of endometriosis. Maximal cytoreductive effort with an aim to remove all macroscopic disease (achieve R0) is the single independent prognostic factor for survival. Complex multidisciplinary surgeries may be required in order to achieve this.

RESUMO

Key Clinical Message: A surgical MDT approach to high-complexity surgeries can allow maximal resection in order to achieve disease control and excellent functional outcomes, as demonstrated here for a case of hidradenitis suppurativa in a patient with Crohn's disease. Abstract: Hidradenitis suppurativa is an autoimmune disease characterized by abscess and fistula formation with purulent discharge in intertriginous zones, and is associated with inflammatory bowel disease. We present the case of a patient with severe ongoing hidradenitis suppurativa causing osteomyelitis and affecting the perineum, on a background of Crohn's disease previously treated with panprotocolectomy and permanent ileostomy. The hidradenitis suppurativa was having a severe impact on the patient's quality of life, and she had failed to respond to conservative management. The patient opted for a radical two-step procedure: first her coccyx and sacrum were removed. The second step was a radical bilateral anterior vulvectomy and posterior vaginectomy, with preservation of the uterine body and cervix. An anterolateral thigh flap was used to reconstruct the perineum. This complex procedure required the expertise of multiple surgical specialties, including plastic, general, spinal, and gynecological oncology surgeons to achieve maximal disease resection, minimizing the risk of recurrence.

RESUMO

Background: Mucinous ovarian carcinomas (MOCs) are rare ovarian tumours accounting for 3% of all epithelial ovarian carcinomas (EOCs). They are either expansile or infiltrative, based on the tumour's histological pattern of invasion. MOCs have a distinct molecular profile, natural history, chemo-sensitivity, and prognosis compared to other EOCs. The aim of this study was to describe patient and tumour characteristics, as well as survival outcomes of expansile and infiltrative primary MOCs. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at a tertiary cancer centre. Patients had surgery for primary MOC between Jul 1, 2010 and Oct 28, 2022. All patients discussed at the Oxford multidisciplinary team (MDT) meeting with a diagnosis of MOC were included. We excluded patients with mucinous metastatic carcinoma (MMC), dual histological diagnoses, those who died before treatment was initiated, and patients with incomplete records. Results: A total of 47 patients were identified and 14 were excluded. Out of the remaining 33 MOCs, 23 (70.6%) were expansile and 10 (30.4%) were infiltrative. The median follow-up was 37 months (95% CI: 14.1-69.8). Patients with infiltrative tumours were older than those with expansile tumours (median age 62 vs. 55 years, P=0.049). Infiltrative tumours were diagnosed at a more advanced International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage compared to expansile tumours: FIGO stage II/III 50% vs. 8.2% (P=0.002). We found paired-box gene 8 (PAX8) more frequently expressed in expansile tumours (75% vs. 37.5%, P=0.099). Adjuvant treatment was administered in 50% of patients with infiltrative disease, compared to only 13% of those with expansile disease (P=0.036). 80% of patients who have relapsed had received adjuvant chemotherapy, compared to 17.2% of patients without relapse (P=0.012). At 3 years, there was a statistically significant difference in progression-free survival (PFS) (94.7% vs. 65.6%, P=0.02) between the expansile and infiltrative groups, but no difference in overall survival (OS) (88.8% vs. 90%, P=0.875). Conclusions: Patients with infiltrative tumours were older, more likely to have bilateral tumours and more likely to have an advanced FIGO stage at diagnosis. Adjuvant treatment was more likely to be administered to patients with infiltrative tumours, however, this did not prevent relapse. PFS at 3 years was significantly higher in patients with expansile tumours. PAX8 was more frequently expressed by expansile tumours.
