Prognostic factors for survival in patients with lung metastases from gynaecological tract cancers.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Lung metastases from gynaecological tract cancers are rare, and prognostic factors are still undefined. The goal of this study was to analyse prognostic factors for survival in this group of patients.

Methods

Data of patients with lung metastases from gynaecological tract cancers who underwent surgical resections from 1 January 2005 to 31 May 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. All patients were treated surgically if the primitive tumour was under control and the lung was the only organ involved. Clinical and pathological data associated with metastatic patterns and previous treatment types were correlated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival using Kaplan-Meier curves, whereas the log-rank test was used to assess differences between subgroups.
