Abstract
Although supracervical hysterectomy is becoming a rare procedure, there are still many women with retained cervical stump. The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the results of treatment in patients with carcinoma of the cervical stump. From 1974 to 1990, 77 patients were treated for an infiltrating carcinoma of the cervical stump. This group accounted for 6.6% of the cervical carcinoma diagnosed during the same period. The pathological examination showed, 91% of squamous cell carcinomas and 9% of adenocarcinomas. FIGO stage distribution was: I (35%), II (45%), III (18%), IV (2%). According to the stages, the treatment used a combination of external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) with plesiobrachytherapy (PBT), and in a few cases, patients underwent surgery or interstitial brachytherapy (IBT). In patients with bulky tumour or advanced stage and/or lymphatic node involvement, EBRT was first delivered. Most of Stage I and Stage II patients, began their treatment with PBT. All stages included, 95% of the patients were treated by exclusive radiation therapy. Complications were classified according to the recommendations of late effects normal tissues (LENT) scoring system described by the EORTC/RTOG. Three-year pelvic...Continue Reading
