Prognostic Significance of omental Disease and the Role of Omental Sampling in Patients With Uterine Carcinosarcoma

Abstract: Although survival was not significantly different between those who did and did not have omental sampling, omental disease had a significant impact on survival. Of those with omental disease, 35% had microscopic disease that could be missed if routine biopsy is not performed, suggesting a role for routine omental sampling.

“…Identification of these cases will allow inclusion of patients with advanced stage disease into clinical trials. 175 Positive peritoneal cytology correlates with poor prognostic factors and poor survival; however, it is not part of FIGO staging and unclear if this should influence treatment decisions. [176][177][178] Recommendations ► Standard surgery is total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingooophorectomy without vaginal cuff resection (II, A).…”

“…In early-stage disease, surgery represents the milestone of treatment, and includes total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomy, and peritoneal biopsies (Baekelandt and Castiglione 2009; Denschlag and Ulrich 2018) www.nccng uidel ines.gov (2020); even though omentectomy or omental al sampling are not formally recommended, these procedures often carried out probably because microscopic involvement has been shown to account for 35% of omental disease, and thus could be missed (Ross et al 2018).…”

“…Our study showed that omental metastases were a risk factor for decreased PFS and OS. Ross et al revealed that omental disease had a significant impact on survival (median OS 11.4 vs 128.7 months for those who did and did not have omental disease, respectively; P < 0.001) [24]. Second, adjuvant chemotherapy and targeted therapy might help improve the survival of patients with advanced endometrial cancer [25].…”

“…Thus, omentectomy may reduce recurrence. Moreover, omentectomy is not a complicated procedure, and it seldom results in severe postoperative complications [24,28,29]. However, based on the existing data, it should be noted that the survival benefit of adding omentectomy to the treatment for USC when the omentum is normal in appearance is still uncertain [30].…”
