Filter by:The incidence of endometrial cancer (EC) is increasing .Different risk classifications are used to direct the primary and adjuvant therapy. The European Society for Medical Oncology - European Society of Gynaecological Oncology -European Society for Radiotherapy & Oncology (ESMO-ESGO- ESTRO) could guide the need for lymph node surgery pre-operatively, and also post-operatively to determine adjuvant treatment. Low-risk patients are managed with surgery alone, while higher-risk group patients undergo more aggressive surgical options. So, it is important to identify new prognostic markers for better stratification of patients to avoid under- or over treatment of EC patients.
A prospective observational study of endometrial tissue and peripheral blood mononuclear cells receptivity to sex steroid hormones in postmenopausal patients with endometrial proliferative processes
Endometrial cancer patients often have iron deficiency anemia before surgery, which can be effectively treated with oral iron supplementation. Anemia and blood transfusions have been previously associated with perioperative infectious diseases. In the present study the investigators will evaluate the impact of perioperative iron supplementation on the incidence of perioperative infections.
Objective: Calculate the incidence of P53 immunohistochemistry abnormal staining in endometrial cancer and to identify its relation with disease stages, pathological types and grading. Patients and methods: 100 cases of endometrial cancer will be included in the study, recruited from Alexandria university hospital gyne-oncology unit. Surgical staging, histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry of p53 were done to all cases to calculate the incidence of P53 immunohistochemistry abnormal staining in endometrial cancer and to identify its relation with disease stages, pathological types, grading. Keywords: P53 immunohistochemistry, endometrial cancer, clinicopathological relation.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the 'Feminine Identity Improvement Program', based on cognitive behavioral and expressive techniques applied to gynecological cancer patients, on prolonged grief reactions and the perception of femininity. The study will be conducted in a randomized controlled and qualitative type with gynecological cancer patients who completed their surgical treatment at least three months ago in the last year at Afyonkarahisar Health Sciences University Hospital.
Opioid Free Anesthesia (OFA) is a multimodal anesthesia and emerging technique that spares the use of opioids and involve other adjuvant anesthetics, which have demonstrated in vitro influence on immunologic and inflammatory response, as well as in metastatic progression. For these reasons we believe that OFA may positively influence in oncologic patients postoperative recovery and in its disease progression.
Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) is the occurrence of vaginal bleeding 12 months following a woman's last menstrual cycle. PMB represents one of the most common reasons for referral to gynaecology services. Approximately 10% of women with PMB will be found to have endometrial cancer. The gold standard of investigation of PMB is ambulatory gynaecology through the outpatient hysteroscopy clinic, which is often combined with Pipelle biopsy for endometrial sampling. Up to 60% of women that present with PMB will have an atrophic-appearing cavity at hysteroscopy. This provides a challenge in obtaining a histological sample through both dilatation & curretage (D&C) and Pipelle biopsy. Often, scant tissue that is insufficient for clinical diagnosis is obtained. Pipelle biopsy is associated with patient discomfort. It is also associated with costs related to the purchasing of equipment and the processing of samples in the laboratory to the sum of approximately 30 euro per sample. It is rare that a sample taken from an atrophic cavity will return any clinically meaningful result. A negative hysteroscopy reduces the probability of endometrial cancer to 0.6%. This study aims to compare patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity that undergo pipelle biopsy to those that do not. Differences in pain scores, cost saving and differences in clinical follow up will be assessed to evaluate the benefit of Pipelle biopsy in patients with PMB and atrophic-appearing cavity.
This is a national observational retrospective multi-site chart review study of patients with advanced, recurrent or metastatic endometrial carcinoma.
We retrospectively analyzed data and compared the impact of intrauterine manipulators on incidence of LVSI in endometrial cancer patients treated at our department.
While total hysterectomy without lymph node staging is standard for low- and intermediate-risk endometrial cancer, certain histopathologic factors can necessitate additional interventions. Our study assesses the influence of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy on postoperative decision-making.
