Comparison of Laparoscopic and Open Surgery for Women With Early-Stage Epithelial Ovarian Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study evaluated the oncologic outcomes of laparoscopy and laparotomy in the management of early-stage ovarian cancer patients.

Methods

We conducted an observational study of women diagnosed with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2014 stage I ovarian cancer who underwent surgery at the West China Second University Hospital from 2012 to 2020. Patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy before surgery, those with non-epithelial histopathological types, or those with insufficient data were excluded. Using propensity score matching, data from consecutive laparoscopic patients treated by laparoscopy were matched 1:2 with a cohort of patients undergoing open surgery. The operative and survival outcomes among the matched cohorts were examined using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Results

Among 200 eligible patients, 74 patients undergoing laparoscopy were compared with a cohort of 126 patients undergoing open surgery. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups after matching. Patients who had laparoscopy had a shorter operative time (P = 0.001), a shorter hospital stay (P <0.001), and lower blood loss (P = 0.001) than patients who had open surgery. The median (range) follow-up period was 43.0 (38.8-47.2) and 45.0 (36.0-54.0) months for cases and controls, respectively (P <0.001). There are no significant differences in progression-free survival (P = 0.430, log-rank test) and overall survival (P = 0.067, log-rank test) between the two groups.

Conclusions

There is no difference in prognosis between laparoscopic and open surgery in women with stage I epithelial ovarian cancer. Laparoscopic treatment of early-stage ovarian cancer is safe and feasible for stage I epithelial ovarian cancer patients.

Project description:BackgroundOne fifth of patients with epithelial ovarian cancers (EOC) present at an early stage (FIGO stage I & II). However, there is scarcity of literature on the outcomes and its predictors. The aim of the study was to assess relapse free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS) and its predictors in early stage EOC.Patients and methodsIn this retrospectively study, we included all patients with early-stage EOC diagnosed between January 2010 and December 2018. Patients with synchronous malignancies were excluded. Clinical profile, clinico-pathological characteristics and treatment details were recorded. Patient underwent initial surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy in high-risk disease. Patients with stage IC, or stage II or clear cell histology or high-grade histology irrespective of stage/histological subtype were defined as high-risk disease. Fertility sparing surgery (FSS) [unilateral salpingo-oopherectomy with complete surgical staging] was performed in patient willing to preserve fertility. Primary objective was to assess RFS and OS in all patients with early stage EOC. Secondary objectives were to assess RFS and OS in early stage EOC with high-risk disease, predictors of RFS and OS, and outcomes of FSS. Survival probabilities were estimated according to Kaplan-Meier and compared by the log rank test. Cox's regression model was used to analyze the significance of various factors affecting relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS).Results195 patients with early stage EOC were recruited with median age of 47 years (range, 16-80 years). FIGO stage I and stage II were seen in 72 % and 18 % patients respectively. Serous subtype was reported in 58 % and high-grade histology in 66 %. 184 patients (94.0%) underwent optimal staging surgery, including 27 (14%) with fertility sparing surgery (FSS). 133 (91.7 %) of 145 patients with high-risk disease received adjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin), while 12 (8.3 %) patients opted to remain on observation. At median follow up of 56 months (95 % CI, 46-64 months), 49 (25 %) patients relapsed [including 3 of 27 (11.1 %) who underwent FSS], 18 patients died of progressive disease, while 31 patients were alive and disease free. Estimated OS at 5 years is 87.6 % (95 % CI 79.9-92.5) and RFS is 73.2 % (95 % CI 64.7-80.0). On multivariate analysis tumor grade was predictive of RFS (HR 2.9, p < 0.04) and OS (HR 9.4, p < 0.02).ConclusionsThis study confirms the excellent outcome for patients with early stage EOC. Histological grade of tumor is a significant predictor of OS and RFS. FSS is feasible in selected patients with early EOC.

Project description:AimTo investigate the role of minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer and determine surgical, clinical, and oncological outcomes.MethodsThis is a propensity score-matched case-control study, comparing three treatment arms: robotic gastrectomy (RG), laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG), open gastrectomy (OG). Data collection started after sharing a specific study protocol. Data were recorded through a tailored and protected web-based system. Primary outcomes: harvested lymph nodes, estimated blood loss, hospital stay, complications rate. Among the secondary outcomes, there are: operative time, R0 resections, POD of mobilization, POD of starting liquid diet and soft solid diet. The analysis includes the evaluation of type and grade of postoperative complications. Detailed information of anastomotic leakages is also provided.ResultsThe present analysis was carried out of 1026 gastrectomies. To guarantee homogenous distribution of cases, patients in the RG, LG and OG groups were 1:1:2 matched using a propensity score analysis with a caliper = 0.2. The successful matching resulted in a total sample of 604 patients (RG = 151; LG = 151; OG = 302). The three groups showed no differences in all baseline patients characteristics, type of surgery (P = 0.42) and stage of the disease (P = 0.16). Intraoperative blood loss was significantly lower in the LG (95.93 ± 119.22) and RG (117.91 ± 68.11) groups compared to the OG (127.26 ± 79.50, P = 0.002). The mean number of retrieved lymph nodes was similar between the RG (27.78 ± 11.45), LG (24.58 ± 13.56) and OG (25.82 ± 12.07) approach. A benefit in favor of the minimally invasive approaches was found in the length of hospital stay (P < 0.0001). A similar complications rate was found (P = 0.13). The leakage rate was not different (P = 0.78) between groups.ConclusionLaparoscopic and robotic surgery can be safely performed and proposed as possible alternative to open surgery. The main highlighted benefit is a faster postoperative functional recovery.
