Abstract: Objective To investigate the risk factor of second primary gynecological malignancy among women diagnosed with breast cancer.Methods In order to examine these factors in women with breast cancer who develop subsequentgynecological malignancy, a case-control study was performed. All the patients and control cases were enrolled from Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, Capital Medical University with the case vs control ratio of 1:4. Information concerning possible risk factors were extracted from hospital records and compared with matched controls. χ2 and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed with SPSS18.0 statistical software for data statistics. Results Among the cases followed, 12 cases of ovarian cancer and 12 cases of endometrial cancer were diagnosed. Univariate analysis suggested that factors such as menarche early than 13 years (OR=6.5,95% CI:2.37-27.81), family history of cancer(OR=3.57,95% CI:1.27-10.06),family history of breast and/or gynecological cancer(OR=5.13,95% CI:1.47-17.92),diabetes mellitus(OR=2.12,95% CI:1.32-12.70) were possibly connected with a significantincreased risk of subsequent gynecological malignancy,while endocrine therapy(OR=0.29,95% CI:0.11-0.78), gynecologic examination termly(OR=0.33,95% CI:0.12-0.86) were significantdecreased risk of subsequent gynecological malignancy. Further multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that heredity of breast and/or gynecological malignancy (P=0.003, OR=5.951), the early menarche age (P=0.000, OR=9.909), diabetes (P=0.010, OR=9.842) are risk factors of the breast cancer subsequent gynecological malignancy. Gynecological examination termly after breast cancer (P=0.037, OR=0.268) was a protective factor.Conclusion Patients of breast cancer with heredity for breast and/or gynecological cancer, early menarche age, suffered from diabetes have a higher risk of subsequent gynecological malignancy.It was recommended that breast cancer surveillance should including gynecologic examination termly which may be a protective factor from subsequent gynecological malignancy.
