Uvod Results. The average value for the fi rst group overall survival was 36 months with a standard deviation of 4.8 months. The average overall survival in patients from the second group was 36 months with a standard deviation of 2.6 months. The average value of disease-free survival in the fi rst group was 18 months with a standard deviation of 2.22 months. In the second group, the median disease-free survival was 22 months with a standard deviation of 0.74 months. Conclusion. Overall survival in both types of operation is identical, and the average overall survival was 36 months. Diseasefree interval in the anatomical resection was 22 months, while it was 18 months in metastasectomy. From all the above it can be concluded that surgery is a fundamental and irreplaceable method in the treatment of liver metastases of colorectal cancer.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound in detecting endometrial malignancy in perimenopausal women. Material and Methods: The cross-sectional study included 100 perimenopausal women who had changes on the endometrium discovered through a regular ultrasound check-up and were referred to Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics "Narodni Front" in Belgrade during the period from September 1, 2012 to September 1, 2013. Transvaginal ultrasound was performed on each participant in the study. Parameters of the ultrasound examination composed a score system. Result: The results of regression analysis showed that this transvaginal ultrasound score have independent prognostic value for detection of endometrial malignancy. Score system showed that the value 8 had the best validity for the detection of endometrial malignity, with the sensitivity of 0.857 and specificity of 0.785. Conclusion: The collected transvaginal ultrasound sample had high predictive value for the discovery of malign changes on endometrium.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
