Abstract：Objective:To discuss the influencing factors associated with prognosis of ovarian cancer patients. Methods:Clinical data of 57 cases of ovarian cancer diagnosis and treatment in our hospital from January 1998 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed , different ages, tumor pathologic type, clinical stage, tissue differentiation degree, residual tumor size and number of chemotherapy treatment between 5 years of survival rate of patients were compared.Results:Among the 57 cases, 5 years of survival rate (42.5%,47.05%)between age over 40 years (n=40)and age under 40 years (n=17)had no statistically significant difference (P＞0.05); 5 years of survival rate (44.44%,41.6%)between ovarian epithelial carcinoma (n=45)and non epithelial cancer (n=12)had no statistically significant difference either (P＞0.05); Different degrees of differentiation ( high and low ), operation pathological stage (I-Ⅱand Ⅲ-Ⅳ), residual tumor diameter (≤2 cm and ＞2 cm), the number of chemotherapy cycles (≥6 and ＜6) with a 5 year survival rates were 73.33% and 33.33%, 72.41%, 53.19% and 14.29% and 0, 53.85% and 22.22% respectively, the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).Conclusions:Age, pathological type has nothing to do with the prognosis of ovarian cancer, pathological stage, histological differentiation, residual tumor diameter, number of chemotherapy cycles are independent prognostic factors of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer early diagnosis, early treatment and regular, full course of postoperative chemotherapy is the key to improving the ovarian cancer survival.
