Abstract:
Objective: To explore the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with ovarian metastasis from gastric cancer. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and treatment strategies of 83 patients with metastatic ovarian tumors treated at PLA General Hospital between January 2006 and December 2017. Univariate analysis using the Log-rank test and multivariate analysis using the Cox proportional-hazards model were used to identify the prognostic factors. Results: The median diam-eter of the metastatic ovarian tumors was 7.1 (1.0-24.0) cm. Of these patients, 36 (43.4%) had unilateral metastasis and 47 (56.6%) had bilateral metastasis; 35 (42.2%) patients had peritoneal metastasis. All patients received chemotherapy, including 57 (68.7%) pa-tients who underwent combined-modality resection of the metastatic tumors and 22 patients (26.5%) who received hyperthermic in-traperitoneal chemotherapy. Of these patients, 74 (89.1%) were followed up, with a median survival time of 15 [95% confidence inter-val (CI): 12.5-17.5] months. The 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival rates were 71.1%, 6.5%, and 0, respectively. Univariate analy-sis showed that risk factors including≥6 metastatic lymph nodes, metastasectomy, synchronous ovarian metastasis, peritoneal carcino-matosis, estrogen receptor (ER) positivity, and high levels of serum carcinoembryonic antigen and cancer antigen-125 (CA125) might af-fect the prognosis (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that metastasectomy, synchronous ovarian metastasis, combined peritoneal carcinomatosis, and ER positivity were independent factors affecting prognosis (P<0.05). Conclusions: We found that the presence of synchronous ovarian metastasis or combined peritoneal carcinomatosis indicated a poor prognosis; in contrast, ER-positivity predicted a better prognosis than ER-negativity. Metastasectomy may prolong the survival of patients.
