항암화학요법 후 난소의 광학현미경적 변화

Abstract

To examine the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapy on the ovary, 23 cases undergoing oophorectomy with radical hysterect,orny in premenopausal wemen receiving induction chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5- fluomouracil for carcinoma of the cervix between March, 1989 and December, 1992 were studied by light microscopy. Out of 23 cases, 19 (82.6%) showed vascular congestion and 12(52.1%) revealed hemorrhage around folliele and within corpus luteum. The follicular structure was desLroyed in 16 cnses (69.5% ) and oocytes of ovums were lost in 17 cases.'I'he mechanism of injury of the ovarian structures after combination chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil is considered to be caused by secondary cell damage following circulatory disturbance of direct toxicity on fallicular cells of oocytes.
