20.500.12556/DKUM-65611 Incidence of positive peritoneal cytology in patients with endometrial carcinoma after hysteroscopy vs. dilatation and curettage Background: The aim of the study was to compare the frequency of positive peritoneal washings in endometrial cancer patients after either hysteroscopy (HSC) or dilatation and curettage (D&C). Patients and methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 227 patients who underwent either HSC (N = 144) or D&C (N = 83) and were diagnosed with endometrial carcinoma at the University Medical Centre Maribor between January 2008 and December 2014. The incidence of positive peritoneal cytology was evaluated in each group. Results: There was no overall difference in the incidence of positive peritoneal washings after HSC or D&C (HSC = 13.2%; D&C = 12.0%; p = 0.803). However, a detailed analysis of stage I disease revealed significantly higher rates of positive peritoneal washings in the HSC group (HSC = 12.8%; D&C = 3.4%; p = 0.046). Among these patients, there was no difference between both groups considering histologic type (chi-square = 0.059; p = 0.807), tumour differentiation (chi-square = 3.709; p = 0.156), the time between diagnosis and operation (t = 0.930; p = 0.357), and myometrial invasion (chi-square = 5.073; p = 0.079). Conclusions: Although the diagnostic procedure did not influence the overall incidence of positive peritoneal washings, HSC was associated with a significantly higher rate of positive peritoneal cytology in stage I endometrial carcinoma compared to D&C. endometrial carcinoma peritoneal cytology FIGO staging hysteroscopy dilatation and curettage maternična sluznica rak (medicina) peritonealna citologija histeroskopija novotvorba stadij diletacija kiretaža diagnostične metode in postopki true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2017-05-10 11:01:10 2017-05-10 11:03:05 2022-07-08 03:09:17 2019-07-11 15:24:16 2017 0 0 str. 88-93 št. 1 Letn. 51 2017 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 1581-3207 618.14-006 784507 5784127 10.1515/raon-2016-0035 1581-3207 URN:SI:UM:DK:5AHINICP Radiology_and_Oncology_2017_Dovnik_et_al._Incidence_of_positive_peritoneal_cytology_in_patients_with_endometrial_carcinoma_after_hystero.pdf Radiology_and_Oncology_2017_Dovnik_et_al._Incidence_of_positive_peritoneal_cytology_in_patients_with_endometrial_carcinoma_after_hystero.pdf 1 FD070C761A4E81A7AD3AABA018D5BC40 408d27f422cb21c60a718bdde7fa0638aef62634bf514c9c537fbf6cbef65bd2 1a912d53-7c0e-11eb-bb7a-00155d0001ca https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=111082 http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/raon.2017.51.issue-1/raon-2016-0035/raon-2016-0035.xml 1 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=111081 Medicinska fakulteta 0 0 0
