Abstract

OBJECTIVE : Our purpose was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasonography (TVUS),color doppler ultrasonography(CDUS) and CA-125 assay in postmenauposal women undergoing laparotomy - laparoscopy for a clinical diagnosis of an adnexial mass. MATERIAL AND METHODS : We performed TVUS for 7500 natural postmenopausal patients in routine control examination between 1997-2001. We found 94 adnexial masses which were > 5 cm at TVUS. DePriest ultrasonographic morphology index, CDUS and serum CA-125 examinations were done. RESULTS : The mean age of patients was 56 (45-71) and the mean menauposal age was 52. We found 94 adnexial masses which were > 5 cm. at TVUS (% 1.25). De Priest ultrasonographic morphology index, serum CA-125 levels and CDUS examinations were done for these patients. De Priest morphology index was higher than 4 in 23 ptients (8.46 +/- 2.18). Pulsality index (PI) was < 1 in 23 patients and serum CA-125 levels were > 35 UI. These 23 patients were accepted as suspected group for ovarian cancer and laparotomy was performed. Ten of 23 patients were reported as ovarian cancer. Eight of them were malign ovarian and 2 of them were borderline tumors. CONCLUSION : We recommend TVUS screening in the routine control examinations of natural postmenauposal women. The technic is noninvasive,well accepted by the patients and cost effective. Postmenauposal women have high risk for the ovarian cancer. Routine postmenauposal examination sould be considered as a chance of cancer screening studies. TVUS could easily be performed during the pelvic examination and in suspected cases (>5 cm mass), combination of morphology index, CDUS, serum CA-125 analysis improve the positive predictive value of TV US for detecting the ovarian malignancies.

Özet

AMAÇ : Bu çalışmanın amacı, adneksiyal kitle klinik tanısı ile opere edilen postmenapozal hastalarda transvaginal ultrasonografi(TVUS), renkli doppler ultrasonografi(RDUS) ve CA-125 ölçümünün tanısal doğruluğunu araştırmaktır. MATERYAL - METOT : 1997-2001 yılları arasında doğal yollarla menapoza girmiş 7500 hastaya rutin menapoz kontrolleri sırasında TVUS uygulandı. TVUS ile 5 cm ve daha büyük boyutlarda 94 adet adneksial kitle tespit edildi. Bu bulgulara, De Priest ultrasonografik morfoloji indeksi, renkli doppler sonografi ve serum CA-125 kontrolleri yapıldı. SONUÇLAR : Hastaların ortalama yaşı 56 (45-71) ve ortalama menapoz yaşı 52 olarak saptandı. TVUS ile 5 cm ve daha büyük boyutlarda 94 adet adneksial kitle tespit edildi (%1.25). 23 hastada De Priest morfoloji indeksi >4 (8.46 +/- 2.18), pulsatilite indeksi (PI) 35IU olarak tespit edildi. Bu 23 olguluk grup, ovaryan kanser açısından şüpheli bulundu ve bu olgulara laparotomi uygulandı. 23 hastadan 8 tanesi malign ve 2 tanesi borderline tümör olarak saptandı. Malignite açısından şüpheli olmayan 71 hastaya laparoskopi uygulandı ve bu olgulardan hepsinin patoloji sonucu benign olarak rapor edildi. TARTIŞMA : Rutin postmenapozal kontrollerde TVUS uygulanmalıdır. Non-invazif, düşük maliyetli ve hastalar tarafından kabul edilebilir bir yöntemdir. Postmenapozal hastalar, ovaryan kanser açısından yüksek riskli bir gruptur.Rutin postmenapozal kontroller kanser taraması açısından önemlidir.TV USG pelvik muayene sırasında kolaylıkla uygulanabilir.Şüpheli vakalarda(>5 cm kitlesi olanlar), morfolojik indeks, RDUS ve serum CA-125 değerleri ile kombinasyonu TV US'nin ovaryan malignensileri yakalamadaki pozitif prediktif değerini güçlendirir.
