Survival outcomes comparing minimally invasive versus open cytoreductive surgery in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Adult-type granulosa cell tumors are a rare form of ovarian cancer, 30% of which will recur. Cytoreductive surgery is often performed at the time of a first recurrence, but little is known about the impact of open versus minimally invasive surgical approaches on survival outcomes.

Objective

To examine associations between surgical approach, clinical variables, and survival outcomes among patients with adult-type granulosa cell tumors who underwent cytoreductive surgery at the time of first recurrence.

Study design

This is a retrospective cohort study of patients with adult-type granulosa cell tumors enrolled in the MD Anderson Rare Gynecologic Malignancy Registry as of April 2024. Included patients had at least one documented recurrence and underwent second
