Abstract:
:Pelvic washings for cytologic analysis have become an accepted diagnostic procedure in the management of endometrial carcinoma. A retrospective study was performed in 163 consecutive patients with FIGO Stage I and II endometrial carcinoma to assess the significance and value of the washings. Abnormal results were obtained in 5.5% of patients. Patients with FIGO grade 3 lesions were significantly most likely to have abnormal washings (P less than 0.05). Significant association was not observed with stage, depth of myometrial invasion, extrauterine spread, histologic subtype, prior hormone usage, or hormone receptor status. Multivariant analysis indicated that, for Stages I and II combined and for Stage I alone, FIGO grade 3 was most predictive of poor survival (P less than 0.01). The postoperative therapy of only 2 patients (1.2%) was altered by the results of the pelvic washings and only one of these patients has survived. No patients have had recurrent disease (median follow-up 31 months) in the peritoneal cavity with negative washings unless two or more other adverse prognostic factors were present. It is concluded that pelvic washings have a limited role in the clinical management of Stage I and II endometrial carcinoma.
