Objective: To evaluate Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) as a triage tool for ovarian cancer in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Method: This is a retrospective study conducted from January 2008-December 2012 in patients diagnosed with ovarian mass. Patients admitted for surgery due to ovarian masses were included to this study. RMI 3 score was calculated based on ultrasonography examination in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, CA-125 test and menopausal status. Patients without final pathological report and incomplete data were excluded from study. Data were analysed using SPSS 20 to evaluate RMI result and final pathlogical report in benign and malignant case. Result: From 882 patients identified with ovarian masses from cancer registry, only 99 patients aged 17-70 y.o were included in this study. Most of the patients were nully-parity (28.3%), non-menopausal women (60.6%), normal body mass index (40.4%), and with stage IIIC ovarian cancer (33.3%). Ultrasonography examination showed that most of patients had solid mass and ascites (19.2%). Meanwhile, CA-125 showed that patients with <35 U/ml were 10.1% and ≥ 35 U/ml were 89.9%. Patients with RMI scores <200 (benign cases) were 19 cases (19.2%) and ≥ 200 (malignant cases) were 80 cases (80.8%). Meanwhile, patients with benign final pathological report were 23 cases (23.2%) and malignant cases were 76 cases (76.8%). There was no statistical difference in RMI between benign and malignant cases based on final pathological report. Conclusion: Our study showed that RMI was not accurate as triage tool for ovarian cancer in our hospital. Further investigation and more patients are needed to confirm this study.

Objective: To evaluate the pr eoperative endo metria l cancer risk as a guida nce to choose th e typ e of surg ical approach based on European Society for Medical Oncology guideline (200 9). Method: Cross-sectional study involved 73 endometrial cancer patients of Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, from january 200 6 to December 2012 whi ch obt ain ed from medical record. The inclusion criteria wer e endometr ial cancer pati ents with compl ete D&C, ultr asonographic, and postoperative histopathological rep orts. Endometrial cancer risk of recurren ce was classified acco rding to ESMO 2009 and final diagno sis and stage based on FIGO. Result: From 40 5 patients, only 73 patients had compl ete reports. Most of the them were postmenopaus al (54.8 %), non-nulliparity (79 .9%), and obese (49.5%) women.According to risk of recurren cestratification, low, intermediate and high risk were found in 12 patients, 27 patients, and 34 pati ents. Based on FIGO, there were 60.2% early and 39.8% advanced sta ge. In high risk gro up, rates of advan ced stage wer e prominent compar ed to othe r gro ups. There were 38.3% patients with postoper ativ e positive lymph nod es metastases. Conclusion: Most of th e endometrial cancer patients we re pr eoperatively diagnosed as high risk. The commones t stage after surgical examination were me. High risk of recurrence showed more positive lymph node compared to low or intermediat e risk. Result of preoperative histopathological and myometrial invasion compared to postoper ative results wer e showed to be inconsistent Pat ients with =1/2 myometrial invasion had more positive lymph nodes metastases. Endometrial cancer risks compared to FIGO stage showed the higher the risk, th e more advanced the stage were. Keywords: endometrial cancer, FIGO stage, high risk, histol ogical type, intermediate risk , low risk, lymph node.
Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of frozen section for ovarian neoplasm in our hospital. Method: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on medical records of patients with ovarian neoplasms who underwent a frozen section laparotomy between the years 2008 and 2013 at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Records with incomplete data on frozen section or paraffin block report were excluded. Criteria for frozen section laparotomy in our facility was based on a malignancy score of equal to or more than 6. Frozen section reports were compared to paraffin block report based on benign, borderline, or malignant cases. Result: From 139 patients with ovarian neoplasm, only 91 patients fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Frozen section examination revealed benign cases was 15.4%, borderline cases was 15.4%, and malignant cases was 69.2%. Based on histopathological type, clear cell cystoadenocarcinoma was the most commonly observed histotype (19.8%). The sensitivity of frozen section for benign, borderline, and malignancy cases respectively was 81.8%, 76.9%, 91.0%. The specificity of frozen section for benign, borderline, and malignancy case respectively was 93.8%, 94.8%, 91.6%. Conclusion: We found that the accuracy of intraoperative frozen section in our facility is adequate to diagnose ovarian neoplasm and can be used to assist in determining the extent of surgical management.
