Abstract
BACKGROUND To build and validate a radiomics nomogram based on preoperative CT scans and clinical data for detecting synchronous ovarian metastasis (SOM) in female gastric cancer (GC) cases. METHODS Pathologically confirmed GC cases in 2 cohorts were retrospectively enrolled. All cases had presurgical abdominal contrast-enhanced CT and pelvis contrast-enhanced MRI and pathological examinations for any suspicious ovarian lesions detected by MRI. Cohort 1 cases (n = 101) were included as the training set. Radiomics features were obtained to develop a radscore. A nomogram combining the radscore and clinical factors was built to detect SOM. The bootstrap method was carried out in cohort 1 as internal validation. External validation was carried out in cohort 2 (n = 46). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, decision curve analysis (DCA) and the confusion matrix were utilized to assess the performances of the radscore, nomogram and subjective evaluation model. RESULTS The nomogram, which combined age and the radscore, displayed a higher AUC than the radscore and subjective evaluation (0.910 vs 0.827 vs 0.773) in the training cohort. In the external validation cohort, the nomogram also had a higher AUC than the radscore and subjective evaluation (0.850 vs 0.790 vs 0.675). DCA and the confusion matrix confirmed the nomogram was superior to the radscore in both cohorts. CONCLUSIONS This pilot study showed that a nomogram model combining the radscore and clinical characteristics is useful in detecting SOM in female GC cases. It may be applied to improve clinical treatment and is superior to subjective evaluation or the radscore alone.

Frequency and therapeutic strategy for patients with ovarian metastasis from gastric cancer. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2022; 407:2301-2308. [PMID: 35551466 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-022-02543-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features and treatment outcomes of ovarian metastasis from gastric cancer. METHODS This study included 155 female patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer at the Kochi Medical School between January 2007 and December 2021. A review of patients with ovarian metastasis was conducted, and their clinicopathological information and survival outcomes were compared with respect to ovarian metastasis. RESULTS Fifteen patients were diagnosed with ovarian metastasis from gastric cancer with a median age of 54 years (range: 30-87 years) and an incidence of 9.7%. The median age of patients who developed ovarian metastasis was significantly lower those without ovarian metastasis (54 years vs. 71 years, P = 0.014). The median survival time (MST) for 15 patients with unresectable advanced gastric cancer who developed ovarian metastasis was 21.4 months (range: 0.2-41.4 months). The MST for 15 patients who underwent surgical resection and systemic drug treatment including chemotherapy to ovarian metastasis was significantly higher than those who received systemic drug treatment alone (28.1 months vs. 10.0 months; P = 0.021). CONCLUSION Ovarian metastasis was found in 9.7% of female patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer and in younger patients than in those without ovarian metastasis. Multidisciplinary treatment, including surgical resection and systemic drug treatment for ovarian metastasis from gastric cancer, may benefit selected patients.
