BACKGROUND/AIM: During ovarian cancer (OC) debulking surgery, the surgeon can examine the peritoneal cavity for malignant cancer cells with peritoneal washing (PW) cytology. The goal of this study was to examine the significance of peritoneal washing as a prognostic indicator for ovarian cancer patients.
Information considering the prognostic factors of OC and their impact in PW's result was collected, compared, and combined.
Omental metastasis, tumor type, tumor invasion, tumor size, tumor grade/ stage, tumor's cytoreduction, and recurrence affect both the peritoneal washing result and the patient's prognosis. The correlation that most of the above factors have with a positive PW and dismal prognosis, led us to the assumption that PW has a significance as a prognostic indicator.
The significance of PW as a prognostic indicator remains an assumption.
背景/目的:在卵巢癌(OC)肿瘤细胞减灭术中,外科医生可通过腹腔冲洗(PW)细胞学检查来检测腹膜腔中的恶性癌细胞。本研究的目的是探讨腹腔冲洗作为卵巢癌患者预后指标的意义。
收集、比较并综合考虑OC预后因素及其对PW结果的影响的信息。
大网膜转移、肿瘤类型、肿瘤浸润、肿瘤大小、肿瘤分级/分期、肿瘤细胞减灭情况及复发均会影响腹腔冲洗结果及患者预后。上述大多数因素与PW阳性及预后不良之间的相关性,使我们推测PW具有作为预后指标的意义。
PW作为预后指标的意义仍只是一种推测。
