Survival rate and prognostic factors in advanced cervical cancer patients accompanied by renal impairment
Abstract: The objective of
this study was to obtain information on the
survival rate of advanced
cervical cancer patients with renal
impairment (ACCRI) and its prognostic factors. In addition, it is hoped that by
this method the scoring system for predicting the death of ACCRI patients hopetully could be obtained. Design of the study used was retrospective
cohort study. Data collected were
retrieved from medical records of
ACCRI patients from 1 January 1998 to
31 December 2003 at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National Central General
Hospital, Jakarta, with a total sample of 70 cases. The results of the study
showed that mean survival of all ACCRI
patients was 8.2 months, mean survival at sixth month was 39%, and
mean survival at one year was 3.2%. Median
survival was 5.3 months. Prognostic
factors affecting the survival of ACCRI patients included histopathological type (adenosquamous cell
and cell differentiation), cortical thickness of the kidney less than 1 cm, and
nephrostomy. (Med J Indones 2005; 14: 173-8)
