Abstract
INTRODUCTION The M component and TNM stage groupings for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) have been empirical. The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer developed a multinational database to propose evidence-based revisions for the eighth edition of the TNM classification of MPM. METHODS Data from 29 centers were submitted either electronically or by transfer of existing institutional databases. The M component as it currently stands was validated by confirming sufficient discrimination (by Kaplan-Meier analysis) with respect to overall survival (OS) between the clinical M0 (cM0) and cM1 categories. Candidate stage groups were developed by using a recursive partitioning and amalgamation algorithm applied to all cM0 cases. RESULTS Of 3519 submitted cases, 2414 were analyzable and 84 were cM1 cases. Median OS for cM1 cases was 9.7 months versus 13.4 months (p = 0.0013) for the locally advanced (T4 or N3) cM0 cases, supporting inclusion of only cM1 in the stage IV group. Exploratory analyses suggest a possible difference in OS for single- versus multiple-site cM1 cases. A recursive partitioning and amalgamation-generated survival tree on the OS outcomes restricted to cM0 cases with the newly proposed (eighth edition) T and N components indicates that optimal stage groupings for the eighth edition will be as follows: stage IA (T1N0), stage IB (T2-3N0), stage II (T1-2N1), stage IIIA (T3N1), stage IIIB (T1-3N2 or any T4), and stage IV (any M1). CONCLUSIONS This first evidence-based revision of the TNM classification for MPM leads to substantial changes in the T and N components and the stage groupings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current T component for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) has been predominantly informed by surgical data sets and consensus. The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer undertook revision of the seventh edition of the staging system for MPM with the goal of developing recommendations for the eighth edition. METHODS Data elements including detailed T descriptors were developed by consensus. Tumor thickness at three pleural levels was also recorded. An electronic data capture system was established to facilitate data submission. RESULTS A total of 3519 cases were submitted to the database. Of those eligible for T-component analysis, 509 cases had only clinical staging, 836 cases had only surgical staging, and 642 cases had both available. Survival was examined for T categories according to the current seventh edition staging system. There was clear separation between all clinically staged categories except T1a versus T1b (hazard ratio = 0.99, p = 0.95) and T3 versus T4 (hazard ratio = 1.22, p = 0.09), although the numbers of T4 cases were small. Pathological staging failed to demonstrate a survival difference between adjacent categories with the exception of T3 versus T4. Performance improved with collapse of T1a and T1b into a single T1 category; no current descriptors were shifted or eliminated. Tumor thickness and nodular or rindlike morphology were significantly associated with survival. CONCLUSIONS A recommendation to collapse both clinical and pathological T1a and T1b into a T1 classification will be made for the eighth edition staging system. Simple measurement of pleural thickness has prognostic significance and should be examined further with a view to incorporation into future staging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is commonly classified as either limited or extensive, but the Union for International Cancer Control TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours seventh edition (2009) recommended tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) staging based on analysis of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) database. METHODS Survival analyses were performed for clinically and pathologically staged patients presenting with SCLC from 1999 through 2010. Prognosis was compared in relation to the TNM seventh edition staging to serve as validation and analyzed in relation to proposed changes to the T descriptors found in the eighth edition. RESULTS There were 5002 patients: 4848 patients with clinical and 582 with pathological stages. Among these, 428 had both. Survival differences were confirmed for T and N categories and maintained in relation to proposed revisions to T descriptors for seventh edition TNM categories and proposed changes in the eighth edition. There were also survival differences, notably at 12 months, in patients with brain-only single-site metastasis (SSM) compared to SSM at other sites, and SSM without a pleural effusion showed a better prognosis than other patients in the M1b category. CONCLUSION We confirm the prognostic value of clinical and pathological TNM staging in patients with SCLC, and recommend continued usage for SCLC in relation to proposed changes to T, N, and M descriptors for NSCLC in the eighth edition. However, for M descriptors, it remains uncertain whether survival differences in patients with SSM in the brain simply reflect better treatment options rather than better survival based on anatomic extent of disease.

Abstract
To address the biological heterogeneity of lung cancer, we studied 199 lung adenocarcinomas by integrating genome-wide data on copy number alterations and gene expression with full annotation for major known somatic mutations in this cancer. This revealed non-random patterns of copy number alterations significantly linked to EGFR and KRAS mutation status and to distinct clinical outcomes, and led to the discovery of a striking association of EGFR mutations with under-expression of DUSP4, a gene within a broad region of frequent single-copy loss on 8p. DUSP4 is involved in negative feedback control of EGFR signaling and we provide functional validation for its role as a growth suppressor in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma. DUSP4 loss also associates with p16/CDKN2A deletion and defines a distinct clinical subset of lung cancer patients. Another novel observation is that of reciprocal relationship between EGFR and LKB1 mutations. These results highlight the power of integrated genomics to identify candidate driver genes within recurrent broad regions of copy number alteration and to delineate distinct oncogenetic pathways in genetically complex common epithelial cancers.

Abstract
4573 Background: Preo chemoRT with weekly I/C and 5040 cGy followed by surgery is well tolerated [JCO 24: Abstract 4032; 2006]. ECOG trial E1201recently reported a median survival of 34 months with this preop regimen [JCO 26: Abstract 4532; 2008]. Bev + chemo improves response rate (RR) and time to progression (TTP) when added to weekly I/C in advanced esophagogastric cancer but does not increase chemo toxicity [JCO 24: 5201; 2006]. We are now combining in a Phase II trial Bev/I/C with concurrent radiotherapy (RT) in esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) with the primary endpoint of safety. Methods: Patients (pts) with resectable Siewert's I or II EA were staged by EUS, PET, and CT. Induction chemo consisted of I-50–65 mg/m2 and C-30 mg/m2 weeks 1,2,4,5, Bev-7.5 mg/kg weeks 1 and 4; and, during RT (180 cGy daily to 5040 cGy), I/C was given weeks 7,8,10,11 and Bev weeks 7,10. Esophagectomy was 6–8 weeks after RT. A planned toxicity analysis was made in 10–15 pts completing chemoRT, and in 10 pts undergoing surgery: toxicity was acceptable if grade 3 / 4 hematologic toxicity remained < 72% and non hematologic toxicity < 40% during combined chemoRT (based on our prior phase II trial of I/C/RT [JCO 24: Abstract 4032; 2006]); and if pts undergoing surgery had no surgical complication related to Bev. Results: 18 pts have been enrolled, 12 male: 6 female; 7 Siewert I: 11 Siewert II; T3N1 12: T3N0 5: T2N0 1. 14 are evaluable for toxicity, 2 are too early, one progressed prior to RT, and one was taken off due to a CVA from a patent foramen ovale. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 4 pts (29%). Grade 3/4 non heme toxicity occurred in 5 pts (36%), including esophagitis 2 pts (14%), neutropenic fever 1 pt (7%), and pulmonary embolism 1 pt (7%). No grade 3 / 4 hypertension was seen, and 3 pts (21%) developed grade 1 proteinuria. Ten pts underwent surgery, and there were no unexpected surgical or wound complications; there were 2 anastomotic leaks. Pathologic responses: 1 pathologic CR and 1 T0N1. Conclusions: In a preliminary analysis of pts treated with Bev + preop chemoRT in EA, there was no increase in hematologic/non hematologic toxicity or Bev related surgical complications. Accrual will continue to 33 patients. Supported by Genentech. [Table: see text]

Abstract
7531 Background: VEGF supports growth of NSCLC and is blocked by bevacizumab. Bevacizumab with chemotherapy is an established treatment for advanced NSCLC. We conducted this study to assess the efficacy and toxicity of induction bevacizumab (Bev) with cisplatin (C) and docetaxel (D) in patients with resectable NSCLC. Methods: All patients (pts) had resectable Stage IB-IIIA NSCLC and received up to 4 cycles of D 75 mg/m2 and C 75 mg/m2 followed by surgery. Pts with non-squamous NSCLC also received 3 cycles of Bev 15 mg/kg along with induction DC (Bev-DC). Bev was not given in pre-operative cycle 4. Pts with squamous or central tumors or hemoptysis received 4 cycles of DC only (DC). All resected pts were eligible for adjuvant Bev 15 mg/kg q3 weeks for 1 year. The primary endpoint was rate of downstaging from pre-operative clinical stage to pathologic stage. Results: From Aug 2005 - Nov 2008, 47 pts were enrolled: 27 women; median age 62; Stage 1B -15%, Stage II-17%, Stage IIIA-68%. Of 36 pts given Bev-DC, 15/30 (50%) who have completed surgery were downstaged. Of 11 pts given DC, 3/11 (27%) were downstaged. In Bev-DC group, 22/33 (67%) completed all 4 cycles of DC without a dose reduction and 28/33 pts (85%) completed all 3 planned cycles of Bev. Pts received <3 cycles due to: hemoptysis (n=3), consent withdrawal (n=1), hypertension (n=1), and sepsis (n=1). For DC, 6/11 pts (55%) completed all 4 cycles of DC without a dose reduction. 42/43 patients were resected. R0 resection rate: 29/31 for Bev-DC and 9/11 for DC. Grade 3/4 surgical complications were seen in 5/31 pts (16%) in Bev-DC and 1/11 (9%) in DC. Only 17/41 (41%) who completed surgery received adjuvant bev (median 6 cycles), and 7/41 (17%) completed all adjuvant Bev. Pts did not receive adjuvant Bev due to: POD prior to adjuvant Bev (n=9), POD during adjuvant Bev (n=6), toxicity (n=4), consent withdrawal (n=1), RT for unresectable disease (n=1), surgical complications (n=4), chemotherapy complications (n=4). No treatment related deaths. Conclusions: Induction chemotherapy with Bev-DC in NSCLC is feasible and is associated with an improved rate of downstaging compared with historical controls (33%). In patients treated with DC-Bev, grade 3/4 surgical complications were increased by 7%. [Table: see text]

Abstract
18045 Background: Bevacizumab (Bev) improves response and survival in patients with advanced non-squamous lung cancer with chemotherapy however there are limited data as single agent therapy and in early stage NSCLC. Methods: Patients with resectable stage IB-IIIA NSCLC were eligible. Patients with adenocarcinoma (Cohort 1) received preoperative Bev and docetaxel and cisplatin (DC). Patients with squamous histology, central location or recent hemoptysis received DC induction therapy without Bev (Cohort 2). Cohort 1 received Bev (15 mg/kg) followed by CT 2 weeks later to assess single agent Bev response. Subsequently D (75 mg/m2) and C (75 mg/m2) were given q 3 weeks; an additional 2 cycles of Bev was administered with C2 and C3 of DC (total of 3 preoperative doses of Bev). Cohort 2 received DC alone followed by resection. Both cohorts received adjuvant Bev x 1 year. Study endpoints included response to single agent Bev, downstaging, safety and survival. Results: 19 patients of planned 70 were enrolled (11 Cohort 1 and 8 Cohort 2). On Cohort 1, there were 2 clinical stage IIB and 9 IIIA patients. After single agent Bev (by bimensional measurement), > 10% reduction in tumor size was observed after 2 weeks in 6/11 patients (- 20%, 15%, 16%, 15%, 13% and 20%). After Bev + DC, there were 6/10 (60%) PRs and DC delivery was 96%. 6/10 patient underwent R0 resection; 1 R2 and 2 were unresectable. 1 patient developed hemoptysis preoperatively and 1 patient developed an upper GI bleed post-operatively. There were otherwise no Bev related operative complications observed. 5/9 patients were downstaged by induction treatment. 3 patients received adjuvant bevacizumab to date (median 5.7 cycles). 8 patients were treated on Cohort 2 (3 with stage IB, 1 with IIB and 4 with IIIA). All 8 patients underwent R0 resection. DC delivery was 94% and there were 6/8 PRs. Downstaging was observed in 5/8 patients and 6/8 are receiving adjuvant Bev (median # cycles to date = 6.7). Conclusions: Bev as a single agent demonstrates regression of tumors after 2 weeks. To date, Bev has been safely administered in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting. Preoperative chemotherapy is well tolerated with more than 90% full dose drug delivery. The study is ongoing. Supported by Genentech, Inc. [Table: see text]

Abstract
4631 Background: Esophageal small cell carcinoma (ESC) is rare and accounts for <1% of all esophageal cancers. It is treated like pulmonary SC but the optimal approach of surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy is unknown. Prior series (Chest 107:179, Cancer 88:262) indicate a poor median overall survival (OS) of 7–12 months (mos), rare long-term (LT) survival and the need for surgery as part of curative therapy. Methods: We reviewed records of patients (pts) with ESC treated from 1980 to 2005. All pathology was reviewed at MSKCC. Results: 24 pts were identified, with records available for 21. 86% male, 14% female, median age 60, 67% smokers. 81% had pure SC histology, with 85% of tumors in the lower esophagus or gastroesophageal junction. 13/21 (62%) had limited disease (LD) by VALSG criteria. For extensive disease (ED), liver (63%) was most common metastatic site (mets). Treatment for LD was: chemotherapy (chemo) only (3 pts, 23%), surgery only (1 pt, 8%), surgery and adjuvant chemo (3 pts) and chemoradiation (CRT) without surgery (6 pts, 46%). The most common chemo given was cisplatin/carboplatin and etoposide (81%). Pts with ED received chemo alone. Overall median survival was 19.8 mos (range, 1.5 mos to 11.2+ years (yrs)); for LD Pts, 22.3 mos (range, 6 mos to 11.2+ yrs); for ED Pts, 10.9 mos (range, 1.5 mos to 2.2 yrs). At median follow-up of 32 mos, 5 pts are alive (4 without disease (NED) and 1 with disease); 2 pts are alive >5 yrs. 4 originally had LD and 3 of 4 received CRT only without surgery. None received whole brain radiation (WBXRT). 1 LD pt treated with surgery and adjuvant chemo recurred after 4 yrs, was salvaged with CRT and is NED 11.2 yrs after diagnosis. Of 18 pts with progression, 10 (56%) had new mets. Most common site was liver (4 pts) and only 1 pt had brain mets. Of 6 pts with LD who received CRT only, 3 recurred (1 local and 2 distant). Of 4 pts with LD who underwent surgery, all recurred (1 local, 3 distant). Conclusions: Pts with ESC with LD who received CRT without surgery can have LT survival. The role of surgery remains unclear. LT survival for 1 pt who underwent salvage CRT for recurrence after surgery argues for aggressive therapy for recurrence. Unlike pulmonary SC, brain mets are uncommon and WBXRT may not be needed for LT survival. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
18003 Background: Thymic carcinomas typically carry a poor prognosis and are quite rare. As such, their management has not been standardized. We reviewed our recent experience with multimodality treatment for thymic carcinoma for outcomes. Methods: Retrospective review of a single institution surgical database. Data included patient demographics, pre-operative staging and treatment, peri-operative events, pathologic findings, and postoperative outcomes. Results: During the 10 year period from 1996–2006, 115 thymic tumors were primarily resected, including 17 patients who had thymic carcinoma. Patient characteristics are listed in the table below. Twelve patients underwent preoperative, platinum-based chemotherapy, and nine patients underwent postoperative radiation. At a mean follow-up of 28.4 months (range 2.1–141.7, median 10.9), 59% (10/17) are disease-free, 2 have died of disease, 4 are alive with disease. In the 10 patients who underwent complete resection, there have been no recurrences. There was one operative mortality. There were no adverse events of CTCAE Grade III or higher. Median length of stay was 5 days (range 3–8). Median survival has not yet been reached. Overall 5-year survival was 80%. Conclusions: Multimodality therapy for thymic carcinoma can result in good long-term survival. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
7686 Background: Genomic analyses of lung adenocarcinoma have yielded striking advances that are already impacting on clinical management. Further advances in understanding the biological heterogeneity of this disease will require integration of multiple types of genomic data. To this end, we have assembled a large integrated genomics dataset of lung adenocarcinomas. Here, we highlight one of the novel findings emerging from its initial analysis. Methods: 173 primary lung adenocarcinomas were included in this analysis. Profiling of genomic gains and losses was done by array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) on Agilent 44K arrays. Expression profiling was based on Affymetrix U133A arrays. The dataset was annotated for EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion and L858R) by sensitive PCR-based assays and for KRAS mutations by sequencing. Results: By unsupervised analysis of the aCGH data, the 173 tumors clustered robustly into two or three patterns of co-occurring gains and losses. One aCGH cluster was strongly associated with EGFR mutation (p<10−4) and was characterized by 7p gains (in the EGFR region) and 8p losses. Remarkably, by expression profiling the most consistently underexpressed gene (p<10−9) in EGFR mutant cases compared to EGFR wild type cases was a MAPK phosphatase gene at 8p12, DUSP4 (MKP-2). The DUSP4 region showed genomic loss in 27/35 EGFR mutant cases vs 47/138 non-mutated cases (p<10−4). A limited screen (n=11) has so far revealed no DUSP4 mutations. Western blotting shows low DUSP4 in most EGFR mutant lines, compared to KRAS mutant lines. Conclusions: EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinomas are strongly associated with genomic loss and low expression of DUSP4. DUSPs are known to be transcriptionally upregulated by MAPK signaling as a negative feedback mechanism and DUSP family members are emerging as putative tumor suppressors in other cancers. We hypothesize that DUSP4 loss cooperates with EGFR mutation to allow full oncogenic activation of the MAPK pathway. Functional studies of DUSP4 in lung adenocarcinoma cell lines are in progress. Our data highlight the value of large, integrated, highly annotated genomic datasets in generating novel insights and hypotheses. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
4023 Background: Response on PET scan during preoperative chemotherapy (chemo) for esophageal cancer (EC) has prognostic significance [JCO 19:3058;2001]. Induction chemo with weekly irinotecan(I)/cisplatin(C) relieves dysphagia, and weekly I/C administered with radiotherapy (RT) is well tolerated [ProcASCO 23:Abs 4017;2005]. We completed a Phase II trial of induction I/C followed by I/C/RT followed by surgery. Repeat PET scan was performed after induction chemo and prior to RT. Methods: Patients (pts) with resectable EC/GE junction carcinoma were staged with EUS, PET, and CT scan. Induction chemo consisted of I-65 mg/m2 and C-30 mg/m2 weeks 1,2,4,5, and weeks 7,8,10,11 with RT (180 cGy daily fractions to 5040 cGy). PET scan was repeated at week 6. Esophagectomy was planned 4–8 weeks after RT. Results: 60 pts were enrolled: 6 inevaluable, 54 evaluable, 3 await surgery; 49 male (91%), 5 female (9%), 41 adenocarcinoma (76%), 13 squamous (24%), median age 59, median PS 0, EUS T3N1 35 (65%), N1 40 (74%). Of 41 pts with dysphagia, 31 (76%) had resolution/improvement with induction chemo and 3/54 (6%) required a feeding tube. Of 51 pts, 3 clinical complete responders (CR) deferred surgery (1 refusal, 2 medically inoperable). Of 48 pts, 4 progressed during induction (8%), 9 progressed during RT (19%), and 35 underwent R0 resection (73%). 9/48 (19%) achieved pathologic CR. The median overall survival was 35.4 mos (median follow up 15 mos). In exploratory analysis in 54 pts, response after induction on the week 6 PET scan measured as a decline in SUV, correlated with time to tumor progression (TTP). The mean change in SUV was 43%. A set point of 22% or greater decline in SUV (PET responder) yielded the greatest distinction in TTP (PET responders TTP 18.5 mos, vs nonresponders 5.5 mos, p = 0.03). 4 pts with progression during induction crossed over to RT with paclitaxel: 3 (2 squamous, 1 adenocarcinoma) achieved durable disease control (one pathologic CR, one pathologic PR, one clinical CR). Conclusions: Response on PET scan during induction chemo for EC may identify early treatment failures, and may direct pts to successful salvage with alternative chemo during RT.

Abstract
4025 Background: While multimodality therapy prior to surgical resection for locally advanced esophageal cancer is increasingly utilized, there remains the perception in the literature that its use may contribute to increased peri-operative morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study was to compare our experience with the use of pre-operative chemoradiation with surgery (CRT) to patients who underwent surgery alone (S). Methods: We performed a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database of all patients in our institution who underwent either (S) or (CRT) between 1/96 and 5/05. Data collected included demographics (age, sex), co-morbidities (cardiac, pulmonary, diabetes), pre-operative treatment details (chemotherapy type, radiation dose), procedure type, post-operative complications (pneumonia, anastomotic leak), length of stay (LOS), and hospital mortality. Statistical analysis included chi-square analysis for categorical variables and analysis of variance for continuous variables, and multivariate analyses was done using a logistic regression model. Results: There were 701 patients who were appropriate for this analysis, 332 (47.3%) (CRT) and 369 (52.7%) (S). 76% of CRT patients received 5040cGy of radiation and 90% received concurrent cisplatin based chemotherapy. CRT patients were younger (p<0.001) and more often male (p=0.003). Univariate analysis indicated a similar incidence of pneumonia (p=0.78), leak rate (p=0.41), hospital length of stay (0.97), and hospital mortality (0.48). Multivariate analysis, controlling for demographics, co-morbidities, procedure type, and tumor location showed no significant difference in hospital mortality (p=0.84). Conclusions: The use of CRT does not appear to result in increased peri-operative morbidity or mortality. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
7021 Background: Induction therapy provides a unique opportunity for the objective assessment of therapies in patients with NSCLC to facilitate care and advance research. We designed this 40 patient prospective trial to measure gefitinib’s ability to induce regressions preoperatively in individuals with NSCLC and to simultaneously correlate response with mutations in EGFR exons 19 and 21. Patients with ‘in-vivo‘ gefitinib sensitivity and/or mutations receive gefitinib postoperatively as well. To facilitate our goals, we enriched the population studied to select individuals with tumors more likely to harbor mutations in EGFR. Methods: At diagnosis, patients with stage I or II NSCLC had baseline chest CT imaging and a core-needle biopsy to detect EGFR mutations. All participants smoked cigarettes ≤ 10 pack years and/or had tumors with bronchioloalveolar features. All received gefitinib 250 mg daily. After 21 days, CT imaging was repeated and resection followed. Surgical specimens were agained assayed for EGFR mutations. Patients with mutation and/or a ≥ 25% regression (WHO) were given gefitinib 250 mg for 2 years. Results: 20 patients enrolled to date. EGFR mutations were detected in both pre and post gefitinib specimens in 4/19 tested (21%). Five of 19 (26%) had a ≥ 25% bidimensional tumor reduction after 3 weeks. Regressions ≥ 25% were seen in 2/4 (50%) with exon 19 and 21 EGFR mutations and 3/15 (20%) with WT EGFR. The other 2 patients with mutations had 11% and 23% tumor regressions. The 6 patients who had either a ≥ 25% lesion reduction and/or mutation received gefitinib postoperatively. No perioperative complications related to gefitinib occurred. All patients are relapse free. Conclusions: In this ongoing trial, 1) Our ‘enrichment strategy‘ resulted in the detection of twice the expected number of EGFR mutations in USA patients with NSCLC. 2) Gefitinib sensitivity can be assessed by CT in 3 weeks. 3) Results of mutation detection were identical in pre- and post-treatment specimens. 4) The rate of response is numerically higher in patients with EGFR mutations in exons 19 and 21. 5) We are using the surgical specimens to elucidate determinants of gefitinib sensitivity in the absence of EGFR mutation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vaginitis is among the most common conditions women are seeking medical care for. Although these infections can easily be treated, the relapse rate is high. This may be due to inadequate use of the diagnostic potential. METHODS We evaluated the misjudgement rate of the aetiology of vaginal complaints. A total of 220 vaginal samples from women with a vaginal complaint were obtained and analysed for numbers of total lactobacilli, H2O2-producing lactobacilli, total aerobic cell counts and total anaerobic cell counts including bifidobacteria, Bacteroides spp., Prevotella spp. Additionally, the presence of Atopobium vaginae, Gardnerella vaginalis, Candida spp. and Trichomonas vaginalis was evaluated by DNA-hybridisation using the PCR and Affirm VPIII Microbial Identification Test, respectively. RESULTS The participating physicians diagnosed Bacterial vaginosis (BV) as origin of discomfort in 80 cases, candidiasis in 109 cases and mixed infections in 8 cases. However, a present BV, defined as lack of H2O2-lactobacilli, presence of marker organisms, such as G. vaginalis, Bacteroides spp. or Atopobium vaginae, and an elevated pH were identified in only 45 cases of the women examined. Candida spp. were detected in 46 cases. Interestingly, an elevated pH corresponded solely to the presence of Atopobium vaginae, which was detected in 11 cases. CONCLUSION Errors in the diagnosis of BV and candida vulvovaginitis (CV) were high. Interestingly, the cases of misjudgement of CV (77%) were more numerous than that of BV (61%). The use of Amsel criteria or microscopy did not reduce the number of misinterpretations. The study reveals that the misdiagnosis of vaginal complaints is rather high.
