Abstract
Prognostic risk factors in histopathologic findings were analyzed in the data for one hundred and thirteen patients with uterine endometrial carcinoma who were treated surgically. Univariate survival analysis with Kaplan-Meier methods revealed that the nuclear grade (p less than 0.005), lymph-vascular space invasion (p less than 0.005), histologic grade (p less than 0.01) and histologic type (p less than 0.01) correlated with the patient's prognosis. Among surgical FIGO stages II and III, there was similar significance in the correlations in the nuclear grade (p less than 0.05), lymph-vascular space invasion (p less than 0.0001) and histologic type (p less than 0.05), although there was difference (p less than 0.05) only between grade 1 and grade 3 in the histologic grade. Multivariate survival analysis with a proportional hazard regression model showed that the nuclear grade (p less than 0.005) and lymph-vascular space invasion (p less than 0.01) correlated significantly with the prognosis. The hazard ratios with a 95% confidence interval for each of these factors were 19.2 (3.2-115.7) and 16.9 (2.1-135.3), respectively. The 3-year survival rate was 98% for a hazard ratio less than 64.7, and 45% for one more than 67.4, between which there was a significant difference (p less than 0.0001). And univariate survival analysis of this hazard ratio also revealed strong correlations with the patient's prognosis. These results suggest that it is of great importance to adopt the hazard model including such factors as the nuclear grade and lymph-vascular space invasion in estimating the patient's prognosis and proceeding to adequate post-operative therapy for individual patient.
