Use and Accuracy of Intraoperative Frozen Section Analysis for Ovarian Masses in Children and Adolescents
2023, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent GynecologyCitation Excerpt :In the adult population, because approximately 75% of patients with ovarian cancer are diagnosed with stage III-IV disease, FS pathology is primarily utilized to guide decision-making with regard to staging and debulking, whereas for the minority that present with early-stage disease, National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend intraoperative FS for women who are candidates for fertility-sparing surgery.15-17 However, previous studies reported varying results in terms of accuracy, with sensitivities ranging from 65% to 97% and specificities ranging from 97% to 100%.18-22 The sensitivity and specificity of our study cohort were relatively low in comparison (44.4% and 94.4%, respectively).
Surgical management of ovarian tumors without the support of intraoperative pathology readings in Bhaktapur Cancer Hospital
2020, Gynecologic Oncology ReportsCitation Excerpt :Pinto et al. looked at the accuracy of IOFS depending on the type of ovarian mass. For malignant, borderline, and ovarian masses, the accuracy rates were 98.5%, 76.9% and 94%, respectively (Pinto et al., 2001). Despite the utility of IOFS for surgical guidance, IOFS equipment is expensive and many hospitals in low- and middle-income countries do not have the financial means to obtain cryostat machines.
Ovarian masses in the child and adolescent: An American Pediatric Surgical Association Outcomes and Evidence-Based Practice Committee systematic review
2019, Journal of Pediatric SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Grade B, consistent level 2 and 3 studies Eight studies addressed the role of frozen section in the intraoperative diagnosis of ovarian malignancy [28–35]. Most of these studies were of level 3 or 4 evidence and focused primarily on adult patients and on epithelial tumors.
Accuracy of Intraoperative Frozen Section Diagnosis of Borderline Ovarian Tumors by Hospital Type
2019, Journal of Minimally Invasive GynecologyThe utility of tumor markers and neutrophil lymphocyte ratio in patients with an intraoperative diagnosis of mucinous borderline ovarian tumor
2016, European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive BiologyCitation Excerpt :Thus, intraoperative frozen section examination plays a critical role [10]. Although the sensitivity of frozen section analysis approach about 90% for ovarian benign and malignant tumors, the sensitivities for detection of BOT (all histologies) and mucinous BOT decrease to about 50–85% and 29–48%, respectively [11–20]. The most commonly used clinical tools for evaluation of adnexal masses are imaging modalities and tumor markers [21,22].
