Objective: Our objective was to assess the patients who have probable early stage ovarian cancer. Materal and Method: Between 2010-2018, 208 patients with isolated adnexal masses who underwent surgery due to presumed malignancy were analyzed. We excluded patients with radiologic evidence of ascites and tumour implants. Results: According to the final pathology reports, 52 (25%) of 208 patients had benign tumours, 46 (22%) were borderline, and 110 (53%) patients’ tumours were malignant. The most unexpected benign tumours were serous cystadenofibroma. Of the malignant tumours, 3 were uterine sarcomas, 8 were metastatic ovarian tumours (all gastrointestinal origin), and 99 were primary ovarian cancers. Seventy-six of 99 primary ovarian cancers were epithelial and 23 were nonepithelial. The most common histologic types were respectively serous and endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Seventy-six percent of primary ovarian cancers were early stage (stage 1-2) and 24% were advanced stage (stage 3-4). Conclusion: Patients with a suspicious adnexal mass, even if ascites or carcinomatosis are not existing, have a high rate of malignancy and should be managed considering this risk.
Amaç: Amacımız muhtemelen malign adneksiyel kitlesi olan hastaları değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: 2010-2018 yılları arasında salt adneksiyal kitlesi olan ve malignite riski nedeniyle ameliyat yapılan 208 hastanın medikal verileri incelendi. Radyolojik olarak asit ve tümöral implant bulgusu olan hastalar çalışma dışı bırakıldı. Bulgular: Nihai patoloji raporlarına göre 208 hastanın 52'si (%25) benign, 46'sı (%22) borderline ve 110'u (%53) malign idi. En beklenmedik benign tümör seröz kistadenofibrom idi. Malign tümörlerin 3'ü uterin sarkom, 8'i metastatik over kanseri (tümü gastrointestinal kaynaklı), 99'u primer over kanseri idi. Doksan dokuz primer over kanserinin 76'sı epitelyal, 23'ü nonepitelyal idi. En sık görülen histolojik tipler sırasıyla, seröz ve endometrioid adenokarsinom idi. Primer over kanserlerinin %76'sı erken evrede (evre 1-2), %24'ü ileri evrede (evre 3-4) idi. Sonuç: Şüpheli adneksiyal kitlesi olan hastalarda, asit veya karsinomatosiz bulgusu olmasa bile, yüksek malignite riski mevcuttur ve bu risk göz önünde bulundurularak yönetilmelidir.
