Abstract:
Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and prognosis of ovarian preservation in young women with early-stage endometrial cancer.Methods Women≤45 years of age with stageⅠendometrial cancer recorded from Jan 2005 to Dec 2011 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were examined.They were further divided into two groups: ovarian preservation group and oophorectomy group.Clinical and pathological recording of these patients were compared.Results A total of 72 women, including 25 patients (34.7%) who had ovarian preservation, were identified.The ovarian preservation group was younger (P=0.007) and had a lower prevalence of lymphadenectomy (P<0.001).While there were no significant difference in stage, tumor grade, the invasion depth of myometrium and adjuvant treatment between two groups (all P>0.05).Of seventy-two cases, five patients relapsed and all survived after a median follow-up time of 89 months (rang: 7-131 months).The Kaplan-Meier curve and the log rank test showed no difference in recurrence-free survival (P=0.194).In Cox model analysis, ovarian preservation had no effect on recurrence-free survival(HR=3.08, 95% CI 0.54-18.44).Conclusions Ovarian preservation in young women with early-stage endometrial cancer is safe and has no negative effect on recurrence-free survival or overall survival.
