Early Cervical Cancer

The aim of the study was to determine if radical trachelectomy with pelvic lymphonodectomy could be a method for treatment of early cervical cancer to preserve fertility. We examined 12 patients who were operatively treated from 1996. to 2006. year. Diagnostic method for cervical cancer was histologic examination, cone or biopsy. Histologic condition was planocelular carcinoma well differenced. Two of the patients had Ia1 stage, seven had Ia2, and three of them had Ib1. We performed abdominal radical trachelectomy with pelvic lymphonodectomy. Resectional edges were patohistologically analyzed ex tempore, as well as lymphonodi, selectively. According to ex tempore analysis we determined if the radical trachelectomy should be done. In one patient resectional edges were positive, so she underwent radical hysterectomy. Postoperatively we found a positive lymphonodus in one patient, so we continued radiation therapy. In twoyear follow-up period we did not find any sign of residual cancer. We concluded that radical trachelectomy with pelvic lymphonodectomy could be appropriate method for treatment of early stage cervical cancer.

6006 Background: The goal of this study was to assess disease-free survival (DFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) in patients with early-stage cervical cancer who underwent bilateral sentinel lymph node (BSLN) biopsy alone versus bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy (BPL). Methods: An ancillary analysis of two prospective multicentric trials on SLN biopsy for cervical cancer (SENTICOL I and II) was performed. All patients with early stage cervical cancer (IA to IIB FIGO stage), negative SLN after ultrastaging and negative non-SLN after final pathologic examination were included. Risk-factors of recurrency and disease-specific deaths were determined by Cox proportional hazard models. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were compared by applying log-rank test. Results: Between January 2005 and July 2012, 259 patients met the inclusion criteria: 85 patients underwent only bilateral SLN biopsy whereas 174 patients underwent BPL. None had positive SLN at ultrastaging or positive non-SLN at final pathologic examination. Between the both groups, there was no differences in histology, final FIGO stage and type of surgical approach. In the BPL group, patients had more frequently tumor size larger than 20 mm (22.9% vs 10.7%, p = 0.02) and postoperative radiochemotherapy (10.7% vs 1.6%, p = 0.01). The median follow-up was 47 months (4-127). During the follow-up, 21 patients (8.1%) experienced reccurencies, including 4 nodal recurrences (1.9%), and 9 patients (3.5%) died of cervical cancer. The 5-year DFS and the DSS were similar between BSLN and BPL groups, 94.1% vs 97.7%, p = 0.14 and 88.2% vs 93.7%, p = 0.14 respectively. After controlling for final FIGO stage and margin status, BSLN compared to BPL was not associated with DFS (HR = 1.76, 95%CI = [0.69 – 4.53], p = 0.24) and DSS (HR = 2.5, 95%CI = [0.64 – 9.83], p = 0.19). Only final FIGO stage was independent predictor of DSS. Conclusions: SLN biopsy alone is oncologically safe in early-stage cervical cancer. Full lymphadenectomy could be omitted in case of bilateral negative SLN. Worse prognosis was associated with higher FIGO stage disease.
