Abstract 1897
Background
MOGCT generally affect young women, grow rapidly, usually involve one ovary and are highly chemosensitive. Only a few studies have evaluated the reproductive outcomes of pts following ChT. The aim of this study was analysis of long-term effects of ChT on reproductive function in a large population of young women treated for MOGCT in our center.
Methods
Inclusion criteria in our study were MOGCT, fertility-sparing surgery, cisplatin- and etoposide-based induction ChT (BEP/EP regimen), age under 40, no relapse following ChT at least 1 year. Blood tests were taken for hormones of ovarian function (follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, estradiol, anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), inhibin B) to assess their menstrual, reproductive function, post therapeutic status of pregnancy or delivery.
Results
A total of 47/163 (28.8%) pts with MOGCT treated in our center between 1987-2015 satisfied to the criteria. Mean age was 21 years (range, 14-35). Median number of ChT cycles was 4 (range, 1-6). The 5-year OS was 85% for all pts and 100% for these 47 women. All pts recovered their menstrual function during the first year after completion of ChT. With median f.-up 90 mo. (range, 12-228), 23/47 (49%) pts attempted conception, 18/23 (78.3%) women conceived with 20 live birth deliveries. There were 2/18 (11%) miscarriages and 6/18 (33.3%) terminations. Four women were pregnant at the moment of the analysis. Inhibin B level was normal in all 15 evaluated pts (median 74,4 pg/ml, range 10-120). Median of AMH level was 0,97 ng/ml (range 0.08-6). In 10 (52.6%) of 19 pts AMH level was
Conclusions
Unilateral adnexectomy followed by modern cisplatin-based chemotherapy does not adversely affect young women’s fertility and provides high chance for cure.
