Abstract

Small-cell carcinoma of the cervix (SCCC) is a rare type of cervical cancer. This study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and survival as well as the optimal local treatment modalities for SCCC. We retrospectively evaluated the data of patients diagnosed with SCCC between 1988 and 2015 in our institution - those included in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and those in the Periodical Database. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression proportional hazard methods were used to evaluate overall survival (OS). A nomogram that could predict OS was constructed based on the Cox proportional hazard model. In total, 695 patients were included in this study. The 5-year overall survival in FIGO stage I-IIA and IIB-IV patients was 45.7% and 14.4%, respectively (P <0.01). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that lymph node status (P <0.01) and cancer-directed surgery (P <0.01) were independent prognostic factors for FIGO I-IIA stage patients, and age (P <0.05), tumor size (P <0.01), chemotherapy (P <0.01) and radiation (P <0.01) were independent prognostic factors for FIGO stage IIB-IV patients. Better prognosis was associated with negative lymph node status, no lymphatic vascu...Continue Reading
