1 Gynecologic Oncology Pre invasive vulvar, vaginal, & cervical disease Vulvar Cervical Endometrial Uterine Sarcoma Fallopian Tube Ovarian GTD Gynecologic Oncologist Surgery Chemotherapy Radiation Therapy Hormonal Therapy Immunotherapy Cervical 14,500 new cases per year in U.S. 5,500 deaths Peak age 47 years Most common gynecological cancer world wide Etiology and Risk Factors Sexual activity HPV 16,18,31,33,35 subtypes Cigarette smoking Immune system alterations Treatment Depends on stage, disease bulk, patient characteristics & preference Radical pelvic surgery Radiation +/- chemotherapy 1

2 Clinical staging of cervical cancer Treatment Selection Stage Tumor volume Complicating medical conditions Known extrapelvic disease (pelvic & PA nodal mets Age & body habitus Surgery vs. Radiation Therapy for Stage I & IIA Disease Cure Rate is Equal Advantages Applies to all patients Survival equal to surgery for early stage disease Mainly outpatient therapy Cervical cancer Radiation Therapy Disadvantages Bladder & bowel injury (2-6%) Vaginal stenosis Sexual dysfunction Ovarian failure Delayed complications Prognosis Clinical Stage Lesion size Depth of cervical invasion Angiolymphatic space involvement Nodal metastasis Predominately squamous cell histology (85-90%) Viral & venereal association Definitive diagnosis of microinvasion is made on cone biopsy Microinvasive carcinomas (SGO def) may be treated by less than radical surgery Stage I thru IIA are equally treated by pelvic radiation or radical surgery Endometrial Most common female pelvic malignancy 40,000 new cases per year 7,000 deaths Ranks 4th behind lung, breast, & colon 75% are postmenopausal 75% are clinical stage I 75% overall 5 year survival 2

3 Endometrial Post-menopausal bleeding Peri-menopausal bleeding Irregular pre-menopausal bleeding Endometrial Role of surgery Definitive treatment (TAH) Staging and nodal biopsies / lymphadenectomy Control of pelvic disease and hemorrhage FIGO Surgical Staging of Endometrial Stage IA: Tumor limited to endometrium Stage IB: Invasion < 50% of myometrium Stage IC: Invasion > 50% of myometrium Stage IIA: Endocervical gland invovlement Stage IIB: Cervical Stromal involvement FIGO Surgical Staging of Endometrial Stage IIIA: Tumor invades serosa, adnexa, or positive cytology Stage IIIB: Vaginal metastases Stage IIIC: Mets to pelvic or PA nodes Stage IVA: Bladder or rectal involvement Stage IVB: Distant mets, intra-abdominal or inguinal nodes Vulvar 0.3% of all female cancers 3-5% of all female genital malignancies 85-95% squamous cell 3,000 new cases per year in U.S. 3

4 Vulvar Clinical Presentation Itching, soreness, bleeding Lump or lesion Patient delay in seeking treatment Physician delay in making diagnosis Vulvar Radical vulvectomy, bilateral inguinal / femoral lymphadenectomy Defines extent of disease (stage) Definitive treatment for most patients The Diagnostic Dilemma of the Adnexal Mass The Fear of Adnexal Mass Ovarian Masses Adnexal Mass Non Gynecologic Diverticulitis Ileitis Appendicitis Colon Urologic Gynecologic Ovarian Uterine Fallopian Tube Lymphatic Pregnancy Infectious Functional Cysts Endometriomas Neoplastic What is the suspicion of malignancy? Is surgery indicated? Choice of surgical technique & incision? Should oncologist be involved? Pre-operative counseling and plan? 4

CT Scan? Tumor markers? CXR Mammogram (>35yrs) Counseling Staging of Ovarian Adequate incision Aspiration of ascites or four quadrant washings TAH-BSO Omental biopsy/omentectomy Systematic exploration of all peritoneal surfaces Retroperitoneal lymph nodes Ovarian Staging Not merely an academic exercise Essential to rational treatment planning Prognostic Therapeutic Repeat Staging in Apparent Stage I & II Ovarian Initial Stage No. of Patients % Upstaged Staging Laparotomy in Early Ovarian Re-exploration after initial Laparotomy in Stage I disease 46% with Grade 3 tumors upstaged 34% with Grade 2 tumors upstaged 16% with Grade 1 tumors upstaged Sites of Metastases in Apparent Stage I &II Ovarian Diaphragm 8.0% Aortic nodes 18.1% Pelvic Nodes 6.0% Omentum 8.6% Cytology 9.8% Young et al JAMA 250:3072(1983) Young et. al.

10 Ovarian NIH Consensus Recommendations Patients with high likelihood of ovarian cancer should be given the opportunity of having surgery performed by Gynecologic Oncologist Aggressive cytoreduction at primary surgery improves long term survival Completely staged patients with Stage IA or IB, Grade 1 tumors do not require adjuvant chemotherapy Second look surgery should not be routine Taxol and a platinum compound is 1st line chemo NIH Consensus Statement 12:1-30,
