Integrated pre-surgical diagnostic algorithm to define extent of disease in cervical cancer
2020
ObjectivesSurvival of patients with cervical cancer is strongly associated with the local extent of the primary disease. The aim of the study was to develop an integrated diagnostic algorithm, including ultrasonography (USG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and examination under anesthesia, to define the local extent of disease in patients with newly diagnosed cervical cancer.MethodsPatients with biopsy proven cervical cancer who underwent primary surgery from January 2013 to December 2018 in four participating centers were recruited. Patients who underwent USG, MRI, and examination under anesthesia prior to surgery were included in the study. Those for whom complete data were not availab…
EP273 A new integrated pre-surgical diagnostic algorithm to define the local extent of disease in women with cervical cancer
2019
Introduction/Background Survival of patients with cervical cancer is strongly associated with the local extent of the primary disease. For this reason, the new FIGO staging system has given greater importance to instrumental investigations in the pre-surgical evaluation. The objective of this study is to develop an integrated diagnostic algorithm, including ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical examination under anaesthesia (CEUA), to better define the local extent of disease in patients with newly diagnosed cervical cancer, using histology as the referring gold standard. Methodology Patients with biopsy proven cervical cancer submitted to primary surgery from Janua…
EP756 Laterally extended endopelvic resection: a comparative analysis between laparotomic and laparoscopically modified approach
2019
Introduction/Background Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection (LEER) has been identified as a valid therapeutic option for women with gynecological malignancies involving the pelvic side wall. The historical approach to LEER is laparotomic, recently we have proposed the so called Laparoscopically Modified Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection (LM-LEER).The objective of this study is to compare surgical and oncological outcomes between LEER and LM-LEER in a consecutive series of patients with gynecological malignancies infiltrating the pelvic side wall. Methodology We retrospectively evaluated women submitted to LEER between October 2012 and January 2019. Inclusion criteria for LM-LEER w…
Laparoscopic laterally extended endopelvic resection procedure for gynecological malignancies
2020
ObjectivesPelvic side wall infiltration by gynecological malignancies has been considered for a long time an absolute contraindication to curative resection. The development of the laterally extended endopelvic resection (LEER) has challenged this surgical paradigm. Although the LEER has been standardized in open surgery, only small studies have been published about its endoscopic feasibility. The objective of this study is to analyze the safety of LEER in patients with gynecological malignancies involving the pelvic side wall.MethodsWe retrospectively evaluated a consecutive series of patients who underwent a laparoscopically modified LEER between July 2014 and November 2018. This indicate…
