Puechl AM, et al. - In this retrospective cross-sectional analysis, researchers examined women with gynecologic malignancies in the United States in order to assess the location of death in these women relative to the US region of residence and urbanization. Death due to gynecologic malignancies was reported in 328,026 women in the US from 2006 to 2016. They found that the location of death for these patients differed by US region and urbanization. In the Northeast and in the West, the highest percentage of gynecologic cancer patients died as a hospital inpatient (31.3%) and at home (49.3%), respectively. In the South, the highest (14.1%) deaths were reported in a hospice facility. The likelihood of dying during hospital admission was the greatest among patients living in large central metro or rural counties (28.7% and 27.1%, respectively), and the chance of dying in hospitals and in a hospice facility was the least (21.8%) and the most (14.3%), respectively, in patients residing in medium-sized metro areas.
