Abstract

To study retrospectively the characteristics and survival of patients with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the cervix after definitive radiotherapy (RT) and to identify subsets of patients who might benefit from aggressive salvage treatment. Between 1990 and 1999, 1292 patients with Stage I-IVA SCC of the cervix underwent full-course RT. Of the 1292 patients, 375 (29%) had either local or distant failure and were included in this analysis. The 35 patients (2.7%) with both pelvic and distant relapse were excluded. In the 162 patients with local failure, 71 (44%) had persistent disease and 91 (56%) had a relapse after complete tumor regression. Of these 162 patients, 47 (29%) received salvage surgery. In the 213 patients with distant failure, 46 (22%) had isolated para-aortic lymph node (PALN) metastasis, and 35 (76%) of them were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy/RT. Patients with supraclavicular lymph node (SCLN) relapse usually underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Palliative chemotherapy and/or RT were given by decision of the responsible attending physician. The independent prognostic factors for local failure were advanced stage and young age (<45 years) and, for distant failure, were advanced stage, po...Continue Reading
