Presl, Jiří ; Novotný, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Špaček, Jiří (referee) ; Fingerová, Helena (referee)
Structured abstract Study objectives: Ovarian carcinoma 1/ comparison of sensitivities among monitored markers CA 125, HE4, CA 19-9, CEA, TK, TPS, MonoTotal 2/ comparison of false positivity of markers CA 125 and HE4 3/ use of CA 125, HE4 and ROMA index in the diagnostics of ovarian carcinoma 4/ use of CA 125 and HE4 in the follow-up of ovarian cancer Endometrial carcinoma 1/ feasibility of use of biomarkers CA125 and HE4 in patients with endometrial cancer in pre- operative management Study design: Retrospective data analysis Settings: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical Faculty and Teaching Hospital in Pilsen Patients and Methods: Ovarian cancer 1/ Sensitivity of markers CA 125, HE4, CA 19-9, CEA, TK, TPS, and MonoTotal was assessed in 266 patients - 19 with ovarian cancer and 247 with benign disorders. 2/ False positivity of markers CA125 and HE4 was evaluated in a total of 390 patients with benign diagnoses - 60 women with endometriosis, 70 pregnant patients, 67 patients with ascites, 60 with pleural effusion, 25 with cardiac failure , 80 with renal insufficiency and 28 with hepatic failure. 3/ As a part of this objective we evaluated 552 patients with abnormal pelvic abnormality - 30 women had a histologically confirmed malignant ovarian tumor. Other 522 women had a benign condition. The...

The role of untrasound assessment of adverse prognostic factors for surgical procedure tailoring in endometrial cancer patients
Frühauf, Filip ; Fischerová, Daniela (advisor) ; Halaška, Michael (referee) ; Burgetová, Andrea (referee)
Objectives: Preoperative ultrasound including assessment of local extent of disease in uterus, adnexal involvement and pelvic spread is recommended staging examination in patients with endometrial cancer. It is routinely based on subjective assessment by experienced sonographists. The main aim of the study was to assess if the objective methods based on simple measurements and calculations have diagnostic performance comparable to that of subjective evaluation in detection of deep myometrial invasion. Two traditional objective techniques were tested - (1) deepest invasion / normal myometrium width ratio proposed by Gordon and (2) tumor / uterine anteroposterior diameter ratio introduced by Karlsson. Methods: The prospective diagnostic accuracy study was initiated at Gynecologic Oncology Centre. All consecutive patients with histologically verified endometrial cancer undergoing transvaginal or transrectal sonography using predefined study protocol followed by surgical staging procedure were prospectively enrolled . Local staging of each endometrial tumor was subjectively evaluated by one of experienced sonographists, myometrial invasion was assessed as deep (≥ 50 %) or superficial (˂ 50 %) and cervical stromal involvement as present or absent. Concurrently, the depth of myometrial invasion was...
