Detailed clinicopathological assessment was done. Analysis of serum MDA level in the patient before and after chemotherapy was measured and its prognostic significance was analyzed.Results: Maximum cases were of eyelid malignancy (n=18, 56.2%) followed by retinoblastoma (18.8%) and OSSN (6, 18.8%). About 43.75% patients were in the advanced-stage. The tumor was histopathologically well-differentiated in 20 (62.5%) cases. Most common malignancy was sebaceous gland carcinoma of the eyelid (n=10,31.25%). Serum MDA level in patients were significantly higher than controls [5.5712± 0.32779 vs 2.5531± 0.08056 nmol/mL, p< 0.001]. Level was significantly reduced after chemotherapy (4.5146± 0.23209 nmol/mL). Serum MDA was maximum in cases of rhabdomyosarcoma (5.9450± 0.23335 nmol/mL) and retinoblastoma (5.7433± 0.14334 nmol/mL). It was minimum in basal cell carcinoma (5.3775± 0.17746 nmol/mL). Pre chemotherapy serum MDA level was significantly higher in patients having larger tumor (> 20mm, p< 0.001) and having lymph node metastasis than those without lymph node metastasis [5.8350± 0.17113 vs 5.4833± 0.32193 nmol/mL, p< 0.006]. No significant difference was observed in post chemotherapy serum MDA level as for as size of tumor (p=0.947) and histopathological differentiation (p=0.109) was concerned.Conclusion: The serum MDA level is a potential biomarker in primary ocular carcinoma to assess oxidative stress and its impact on response to chemotherapy.Keywords: malondialdehyde, chemotherapy, malignancy, oxidative stress, biomarker |
