Clinical analysis of endometrial cancer patients with obesity, diabetes, and hypertension

The purpose of our study was to study the postoperation outcome and incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in endometrial cancer (EC) patients with or without hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. This analysis included 219 patients with endometrial carcinoma who were treated between 2002 and 2012 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Yangzhou University Hospital. Patients were divided into five groups based on the comorbidities. Group 1 EC & Diabetes, Group 2 EC & Hypertension, Group 3 EC & Obesity, Group 4 EC Combined two, Group 5 no combined. Then the five groups were analyzed in postoperation outcomes and DVT incidence using one-way analysis of variance or Pearson chi(2) tests. we found that there was no significant difference in pelvic lymph node metastasis (P=0.102), aortic lymph node metastasis (P=0.221), and operative time (P=0.503). But there was significant difference in blood loss (P<0.01), hospital stay (P<0.01). No significant difference (P>0.05) in treatment outcome between surgical operation, surgical operation+ radiotherapy and radiotherapy. Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism have some significantly (P<0.01) (P<0.01), respectively. Compared to patients who simply suffer from endometrial cancer, diabetes make patients easy bleeding in surgery and increase hospitalization time in corresponding. VTE is a common complication of EC surgery with comorbidities, such as diabetes and hypertension, and it's a remarkable proportion of events occurring late after surgery.
