To reveal the demographic features, prognostic factors, and tumor characteristics of patients with non-epithelial ovarian tumors (NEOTs).
This cross-sectional study was performed using data from all female patients diagnosed with NEOT (germ cell [GC], sex cord-stromal cells [SCSC], sarcoma, and small cell carcinoma) from 2002 to 2017 at Princess Noorah Oncology Center, National Guard Hospital Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Forty patients with NEOTs were identified. There were equal percentages of GC (45%) and SCSC (45%) origin tumors, and these were the most common histological types. The remaining tumors were sarcomas. Germ cell tumors were more common in younger patients, while SCSC tumors were more frequent in the older age group.
The findings for protective and risk factors were inconclusive. Patients with GC tumors had better survival outcomes than those with the other subtypes.
揭示非上皮性卵巢肿瘤(NEOTs)患者的人口统计学特征、预后因素和肿瘤特征。
本横断面研究使用了 2002 年至 2017 年期间在沙特阿拉伯吉达的国家警卫队医院的努尔公主肿瘤中心诊断为 NEOT(生殖细胞 [GC]、性索-间质细胞 [SCSC]、肉瘤和小细胞癌)的所有女性患者的数据。
确定了 40 例 NEOT 患者。GC(45%)和 SCSC(45%)起源肿瘤的比例相等,且这些是最常见的组织学类型。其余的肿瘤为肉瘤。生殖细胞肿瘤在年轻患者中更为常见,而 SCSC 肿瘤在老年患者中更为常见。
保护和风险因素的研究结果尚无定论。GC 肿瘤患者的生存结局优于其他亚型。
