ABSTRACT
Introduction: epithelial ovarian cancer is considered the most lethal gynecological neoplasm in the Western Hemisphere, due in part to the high rate of relapses in the first 2 to 5 years of their initial diagnosis.Objective: to evaluate the influence of the evolution of prognostic factors on the relapses of epithelial ovarian cancer in patients attending the Tercer Congreso Provincial Cancer Center during 2010-2014.
Method: a descriptive, analytical, retro-prospective, longitudinal epidemiological research was carried out, with a sample of 62 patients diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer. Kaplan-Meier Survival Curves and Logrank Tests were applied.
Results: disease-free survival was 59.7%. The factors that influenced on the relapse of patients were the stages of the disease, residual tumor size and sensitivity to platinum salts (p ‹ 0.05). The histological characteristics did not influence on the evolution of the patients (p › 0.05).
Conclusions: Prognostic factors for relapse of epithelial ovarian cancer in Pinar del Rio are: clinical stage, residual tumor size and sensitivity to platinum salts.
