摘要

Objective: To evaluate the role of surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy in the management of small cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix (SCCC) through a retrospective study of Taiwanese Gynecologic Oncology Group. Methods: We reviewed the medical records and histological files of 144 patients with FIGO stages IA-IIB SCCC treated in 11 main hospitals in Taiwan from 1987 to 2009. Results: There were 110 patients receiving primary surgery and 34 primary radiation therapy. Most patients in each group also received chemotherapy as part of primary treatment. A lower loco-regional failure rate was observed in patients who received primary radiation therapy than in those who had primary surgery (6% vs. 27%; P = 0.009). The 5-year overall survival (OS) was 89% for 13 surgically treated patients with cervical tumor â‰2 cm and no lymphovascular space involvement (LVSI) in whom recurrence was noted in 2 of 4 patients without receiving adjuvant chemotherapy and none in the 9 patients who had chemotherapy. Excluding these 13 patients, primary radiation therapy with at least 5 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy (n = 14, including 12 stages IB2-IIB) resulted in a 5-year OS of 78%, better than that of 46% by primary surgery (n = 97, including 40 stages IB2-IIB) (P = 0.046). Conclusions: None of the 9 patients with cervical tumor 2 cm and no LVSI showed disease recurrence after primary surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. For most patients with stages I-II, primary radiation therapy with aggressive chemotherapy was associated with better survival than surgery.
