description | According to the revision of the FIGO 2018 staging system, cervical cancer with pelvic lymph node metastases was changed to stage IIIC1. We retrospectively analyzed the prognosis and complications of locally resectable (classified as T1/T2 by TNM classification of the Union for International Cancer Control) stage IIIC1 cervical cancer. A total of 43 patients were divided into three groups: surgery with chemotherapy (CT) (ope+CT group) (T1; n = 7, T2; n = 16), surgery followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), or radiotherapy (RT) (ope+RT group) (T1; n = 5, T2; n = 9), and CCRT or RT alone (RT group) (T1; n = 0, T2; n = 6). In T1 patients, recurrence was observed in three patients, but there was no difference among the treatment groups, and no patients died. In contrast, in T2 patients, recurrence and death were observed in nine patients (8 in ope+CT; 1 in ope+RT), and recurrence-free survival and overall survival were lower in the ope+CT group (<i>p</i> = 0.02 and 0.04, respectively). Lymphedema and dysuria were more common in the ope+RT group. A randomized controlled trial comparing CT and CCRT as an adjuvant therapy after surgery in T1/T2 patients, including those with pelvic lymph node metastases, is currently underway. However, our data suggest that performing CT alone after surgery in T2N1 patients is likely to worsen the prognosis. |
