BACKGROUND/AIM: The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented global changes, necessitating adjustments to address public health challenges. The impact on advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) surgery, marked by increased perioperative risks, and changes in management plans was explored in this study based on promptly published British Gynaecologic Cancer Society (BGCS) and European Society of Gynaecologic Oncology (ESGO) guidelines.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective data from 332 patients with advanced EOC who underwent cytoreductive surgery at a UK tertiary center were analyzed, and the outcomes were compared between pre-COVID-19 (2018-2019) (n=189) and COVID-19 era (2020-2021) (n=143) cohorts, covering the same timeframe (March to December). Primary outcomes included residual disease (RD) and progression-free survival (PFS), while secondary outcomes were the ESGO quality indicators (QIs) for advanced EOC surgery. Kaplan-Meier curves were produced to illustrate PFS.
RESULTS: Complete cytoreduction rates remained comparable at 74.07% and 72.03% for pre-COVID-19 and COVID-19 groups, respectively. Differences were observed in ECOG performance status (p=0.015), Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admissions (p=0.039) with less interval debulking surgeries (p=0.03), lower surgical complexity scores (p=0.02), and longer operative times in the COVID-19 group (p=0.01) compared to the pre-COVID-19 group. The median PFS rates were 37 months and 34 months in the pre-COVID-19 and COVID-19 groups, respectively (p=0.08). The surgical QIs 1-3 remained uncompromised during the COVID-19 era.
CONCLUSION: Management modifications prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic did not adversely impact cytoreduction rates or PFS.
