To determine the differences between white and black women with regard to the presentation and behavior of adenocarcinoma of the endometrium.
Records of 273 (68%) white patients and 117 (32%) black patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma were reviewed in Bloemfontein, South Africa. Survival data was calculated according to the direct method where losses in follow-up were regarded as tumor deaths.
Most patients (82%) were treated by pre-operative radium followed by total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, with post-operative external irradiation where indicated. Pre-operatively, fewer black women had reached FIGO stage I, while a larger number had advanced to stages II-IV (P = 0.0024). In addition, the tumor differentiation was more often poor in the black group (P < 0.0001). Ten-year follow-up was achieved in 84% of the white patients and 51% of the black patients and the 10-year survival figures were 67% for white patients and 28% for blacks (P < 0.0001).
Endometrial adenocarcinoma is a more aggressive disease in black women than it is in whites.
确定白人女性和黑人女性在子宫内膜腺癌的表现及行为方面的差异。
对南非布隆方丹的273例(68%)白人子宫内膜腺癌患者和117例(32%)黑人子宫内膜腺癌患者的记录进行了回顾。生存数据根据直接法计算,随访中的失访被视为肿瘤死亡。
大多数患者(82%)接受术前镭疗,随后进行全腹子宫切除术和双侧输卵管卵巢切除术,并在必要时进行术后外照射。术前,达到国际妇产科联盟(FIGO)I期的黑人女性较少,而进展到II-IV期的黑人女性较多(P = 0.0024)。此外,黑人组肿瘤分化较差的情况更为常见(P < 0.0001)。84%的白人患者和51%的黑人患者获得了10年随访,白人患者的10年生存率为67%,黑人患者为28%(P < 0.0001)。
与白人女性相比,子宫内膜腺癌在黑人女性中是一种侵袭性更强的疾病。
