Objective. To quantify the impact of perioperative beta blocker use on survival after primary cytoreductive surgery for epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods. We conducted a multi-center retrospective study of all women who underwent primary cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer (2000 - 2010). One institution had routinely used perioperative blockers for patients "at risk" for coronary events. The other institution did not routinely use perioperative blockers. Demographic, operative, and follow up data were collected. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the effect of beta blockers on progression-free interval (PFI) as well as overall survival (OS).Results. Out of 185 eligible patients, 70 received beta blockers and 115 underwent cytoreductive surgery without perioperative blockers. Both groups were similar in demographics. A history of hypertension was present more often in the beta blocker group compared to the group that did not receive beta blockers (22% and 6%, p = 0.002). PFI in beta blocker group was greater at 18.2 vs. 15.8 months (p = 0.66). The OS in the beta blacker group was significantly higher at 44.2 vs. 39.3 months (p = 0.01). In multivariate analysis, perioperative beta locker use was associated with significant improvement in OS (HR 0.68 (0.46-0.99); p = 0.046).Conclusion. Our study showed an association between perioperative beta ocker use and.longer overall survival in patients undergoing primary ovarian cancer cytoreductive surgery. A prospective randomized clinical trial in this population would further validate these results. (C) 2016 Published by Elsevier Inc.
