Premenopozal Kadinlardaki Ovaryen Kitlelerin Preoperatif Tanisinda Transvaginal Ultrason Ve Komputerize Tomografinin Ca-125 İle Birlikte Değerlendirilmesi

Amaç: Çalışmanın amaçları premenopozal kadınlardaki ovaryen kitlelerin preoperatif teşhisinde i transvaginal ultrason TVUS ve kompüterize tomografi CT ve ii bu görüntüleme yöntemleri ile kombine olarak CA-125 değerlerinin doğruluğunu karşılaştırmaktı. Gereç-yöntem: Adneksiyal kitleden şüphe edilen 91 premenopozal kadın çalışma kapsamına alındı. Hastaların TVUS, CT ölçümleri ile CA-125 değerleri saptandı. Daha sonra değerler histopatolojik sonuçlarla kıyaslandı. Test sonuçlarındaki genel kanı ve kesin sonuçlar kappa istatistiği ile hesaplandı. Bulgular: Histoloji sonuçlarına göre ovaryen tümorlerin 12si malign ve 79si benign idi. Aşağıdaki sonuçlar TVUS, CT ve TVUS ve CT nin CA-125 ile kombinasyonu olarak hesaplandı; sensitivite sırasıyla, 83%, 91%, 100%; spesifisite, 92%, 96%, 97% idi. Aynı zamanda, TVUS ve CT nin CA-125 ile kombinasyonu tek başına TVUS ve CT e göre daha yüksek doğruluk oranına sahipti sırasıyla 0.90, 0.76 ve 0.89 . Sonuç: TVUS ovaryen lezyonların teşhisinde kost –effektif olmasına rağmen, sonografide kanser şüphelenilen vakalarda CT ve CA-125 ölçümleri yayılımı göstermede ve preoperatif evrelemede yararlıdır

Transvagınal Ultrasound And Computed Tomography Combıned Wıth Ca125 Determınatıons In Preoperatıve Evaluatıon Of Ovarıan Masses In Premenopausal Women

Background: The aims of the study were compare the accuracy of i transvaginal ultrasound TVUS and computed tomography CT and ii combined these imaging modalities together with CA-125 determinations in preoperative evaluation of ovarian masses in premenopausal women. Methods: Included in this study were 91 premenopausal women with suspicious adnexal mass. Patients underwent TVUS, CT and CA-125 determinations. The findings were then compared with histopathological diagnosis. The overall agreement between the test results and the actual outcome was calculated by means of kappa statistic. Results: Histology revealed 12 malignant and 79 benign ovarian tumors. The following data were calculated for TVUS, CT and TVUS and CT combined with CA-125 determinations, sensitivities, 83%, 91%, 100%; specificities, 92%, 96%, 97% respectively. TVUS and CT combined with CA-125 also had higher accuracy rate when compared with TVUS and CT alone 0.90, 0.76 and 0.89 respectively . Conclusion: Although TVUS is a cost-effective method in the diagnosis of ovarian lesions, CT and CA-125 determinations should be useful when ovarian carcinoma is suspected on sonography, to investigate the extent of neoplastic disease and preoperative staging
