摘要

Objective

To determine whether cytoreduction is associated with improved outcome in patients newly diagnosed with metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS).

Methods

We retrospectively identified all patients treated at our institution for high-grade uterine LMS with extrauterine disease at the time of initial diagnosis from 7/1/82 to 7/31/07. Pattern of disease spread was classified as intraperitoneal (IP) or extraperitoneal (EP). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were determined from date of initial surgery using Kaplan-Meier estimates.

Results

We identified 96 cases. Median age was 54 years (range, 23-81). IP disease was seen in 48 (50%) and EP in 48 (50%). A complete gross resection of all tumor was achieved in 41/84 (49%). Recurrence or progression was noted in 93 (97%); 81 (84%) have died. Median PFS and OS for the entire cohort was 9.7 months (range, 6.7-10.9) and 20.2 months (range, 15.5-24.8), respectively. All 8 non-surgical cases died within 30 months of diagnosis. Median PFS was 14.2 months (range, 11.4-16.9) for those with a complete gross resection versus 6.8 months (range, 4.1-9.5) for those with any residual disease (P = 0.002). Median OS was 31.9 months (range, 3.3-60.4) versus 20.2 months (range, 11.8-28.6), respectively (P = 0.04). On multivariate analysis, no residual disease was independently associated with PFS when adjusting for disease distribution (IP vs EP) and the use of chemotherapy but not OS.

Conclusions

Surgical cytoreduction of metastatic uterine LMS was independently associated with PFS but not OS in cases selected for surgery. The improvement in PFS must be weighed against the morbidity of surgery.
