    Comparison of stage III mucinous and serous ovarian cancer: a case-control study
    (BMC, 2018-01-01) Cuylan, Zeliha Firat; Karabuk, Emine; Oz, Murat; Turan, Ahmet Taner; Meydanli, Mehmet M.; Taskin, Salih; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Sahin, Hanifi; Ulukent, Suat C.; Akbayir, Ozgur; Gungorduk, Kemal; Gungor, Tayfun; Kose, Mehmet F.; Ayhan, Ali
    Background: The purpose of this case-control study was to compare the prognoses of women with stage III mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) who received maximal or optimal cytoreduction followed by paclitaxel plus carboplatin chemotherapy to those of women with stage III serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) treated in the similar manner. Methods: We performed a multicenter, retrospective review to identify patients with stage III MOC at seven gynecologic oncology departments in Turkey. Eighty-one women with MOC were included. Each case was matched to two women with stage III serous EOC in terms of age, tumor grade, substage of disease, and extent of residual disease. Survival estimates were measured using Kaplan-Meier plots. Variables predictive of outcome were analyzed using Cox regression models. Results: With a median follow-up of 54months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) for women with stage III MOC was 18.0months (95\% CI

    Laparoscopic near-infrared fluorescent imaging as an alternative option for sentinel lymph node mapping in endometrial cancer: A prospective study
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2017-01-01) Taskin, Salih; Sukur, Yavuz Emre; Altin, Duygu; Ersoz, Cevriye Cansiz; Turgay, Batuhan; Kankaya, Duygu; Gungor, Mete; Ortac, Firat
    Background: To evaluate feasibility of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping by using near-infrared fluorescent imaging and indocyanine green (NIR/ICG) integrated laparoscopic system in clinically uterine-confined endometrial cancer. Materials and methods: Patients with clinically early-stage endometrial cancer were included in this prospective study. ICG was injected to the uterine cervix and NIR/ICG integrated laparoscopic system (Spies Full HD D-Light P ICG technology, Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) was used during the operations. SLN and/or suspicious lymph nodes were resected. Side specific lymphadenectomy was performed when mapping was unsuccessful. Systematic lymphadenectomy was completed following SLN algorithm steps. Results: Seventy-one eligible patients were analyzed. The overall, unilateral and bilateral SLN detection rates were 95.7\%, 18.3\%, 77.4\%, respectively. There were 8 (11.2\%) patients with lymph node metastasis. One of them was isolated para-aortic node metastasis. Negative predictive value, sensitivity and false negative rate for detecting lymphatic spread were 98.4\%, 87.5\% and 1.5\%, respectively. Conclusion: Sentinel lymph node mapping can easily be performed with high accuracy by using NIR/ICG integrated conventional laparoscopic system in endometrial cancer and almost all lymphatic spread can be detected.
