6000 Background: The role of secondary cytoreductive surgery in recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) has been under debate for decades. A recent trial unselected patients (pts) failed to show an OS benefit. Methods: Pts with ROC and 1st relapse after 6+ months (mos) platinum-free interval (TFIp) were eligible if they presented a positive AGO-score (PS ECOG 0, ascites ≤500 ml, complete resection at initial surgery) prospectively randomized second-line chemotherapy alone vs. followed by the same...
Abstract BACKGROUND Limited knowledge exists concerning the impact of radical hysterectomy (RH) alone on sexual function patients with early‐stage cervical carcinoma. The authors investigated longitudinal course self‐reported after RH. METHODS current study was comprised 173 lymph node‐negative, carcinoma who had undergone RH and pelvic lymphadenectomy. They were assessed prospectively using a validated self‐assessment questionnaire 5 weeks 3 months, 6 12 18 24 months Results compared an...
Abstract BACKGROUND The authors report on the development and validation of a cervical cancer module for European Organization Research Treatment Cancer (EORTC) Quality‐of‐Life (QoL) questionnaire (QLQ), which was designed to assess disease‐specific treatment‐specific aspects QoL in patients with cancer. METHODS (EORTC QLQ‐CX24) developed multicultural, multidisciplinary setting supplement EORTC QLQ‐C30 core questionnaire. were administered 346 who underwent radical hysterectomy received...
5501 Background: The role of secondary cytoreductive surgery in recurrent ovarian cancer (OC) has not been defined by level-1 evidence. Methods: Pts with OC and 1st relapse after 6+ mos platin-free interval (TFIp) were eligible if they presented a positive AGO-score (PS ECOG 0, ascites ≤500 ml, complete resection at initial surgery) randomized to 2 nd -line chemotherapy alone vs followed chemo. Chemo regimens selected according the institutional standard. We report here results predetermined...
Radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy represents the standard treatment for early-stage cervical cancer. Results from a recent randomized controlled trial demonstrate that minimally invasive surgery is inferior to laparotomy regards disease-free and overall survival.To investigate oncologic safety of robot-assisted cancer as compared laparotomy.Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical non-inferior in recurrence-free survival advantage fewer post-operative complications superior...
The Groningen International Study on Sentinel nodes in Vulvar cancer (GROINSS-V)-II investigated whether inguinofemoral radiotherapy is a safe alternative to lymphadenectomy (IFL) vulvar patients with metastatic sentinel node (SN).GROINSS-V-II was prospective multicenter phase-II single-arm treatment trial, including early-stage (diameter < 4 cm) without signs of lymph involvement at imaging, who had primary surgical (local excision SN biopsy). Where the involved (metastasis any size), given...
Treatment for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer has been mainly based on systemic therapy. The role of secondary cytoreductive surgery is unclear.We randomly assigned who had a first relapse after platinum-free interval (an during which no platinum-based chemotherapy was used) 6 months or more to undergo and then receive alone. Patients were eligible if they presented positive Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynäkologische Onkologie (AGO) score, defined as an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group...
Research in palliative care is considered difficult due to the poor health of patients. However, patient-provided data are essential for a thorough description patient symptomatology and evaluation care.The authors examined feasibility questionnaire-based study using European Organization Treatment Cancer quality-of-life instrument EORTC QLQ-C30, Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS), Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) cancer patients who were receiving care. This report describes...
It is assumed that conventional laparoscopy (LAP) and robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS) differ in terms of the surgeon's comfort. This study compared muscle workload, work posture perceived physical exertion surgeons performing LAP or RALS.Colorectal with experience advanced RALS performed one each operation. Bipolar surface electromyography (EMG) recordings were made from forearm, shoulder neck muscles, expressed relative to EMG maximum (%EMGmax ). The static, median peak levels...
Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery (MILS) for endometrial cancer reduces surgical morbidity compared with a total abdominal hysterectomy. However, only minority of women early-stage undergo MILS.
Abstract The Sexual function‐Vaginal changes Questionnaire (SVQ), was developed to investigate sexual and vaginal problems in gynaecological cancer patients. instrument consists of 20 core items, measuring interest, lubrication, orgasm, dyspareunia, dimensions, intimacy, partner, activity, satisfaction, body image. Seven additional items assessing current levels compared pre‐diagnosis are intended be used only once longitudinal studies. SVQ validated two ways: first, the comprehensibility...
Objective To test the hypothesis that patient‐initiated follow up reduces fear of cancer recurrence ( FCR ) and healthcare use when compared with traditional hospital‐based up. Design Pragmatic, multicentre randomised trial. Setting Four Danish departments gynaecology between May 2013 2016. Population One hundred fifty‐six women diagnosed International Federation Gynecology Obstetrics FIGO stage I low‐intermediate risk endometrial carcinoma. Methods Women allocated to control group attended...
Rehabilitation after cancer is important, and efficient rehabilitation requires knowledge of patient's needs. This study aimed to identify short-term needs women with endometrial cervical cancer.Ninety-six (82.6%) were included in an exploratory questionnaire from Odense University Hospital September 2011 March 2012. Needs assessed pre-treatment 3 months later using the three-levels-of-needs questionnaire. Furthermore, 16 participated focus group interviews following treatment. The...
