Abstract
Objective To evaluate the feasibility and surgical outcome of the modified method of cervical conization with hybrid use of a cold knife and an electric knife. Methods A retrospective analysis of cervical conization for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions was performed between January 2020 and December 2020. Traditional cold knife conization and modified conization were used. The clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes were compared between these methods. Results Ninety-two patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions were included. Traditional conization was performed in 46 patients, and the modified method was used in 46 patients. There were no differences in clinical characteristics, such as age, menopausal status, and conization height, between the methods. Intraoperative blood loss with the modified method was significantly lower than that with traditional conization (27.6 ± 4.7 vs 51.3 ± 18.3 mL). Postoperative vaginal bleeding requiring emergent measures, such as prolonged gauze compression, sutures, or electrocautery, was significantly less with the modified method than with traditional conization (4.3% vs 17.4%). A median follow-up of 10.2 months showed no significant difference in persistence or recurrence between the methods. Conclusions The modified method of cervical conization with hybrid use of cold and electric knives may be a good alternative to traditional cold knife conization.

Abstract
The incidence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN) among reproductive-aged women has increased in Japan. Cervical conization is commonly applied for local cervical treatment to preserve fertility. The Shimodaira-Taniguchi (S-T) conization procedure is widely used in Japan. S-T conization uses a high-frequency current and a triangular probe with a linear excision electrode to remove cervical tissue as a single informative specimen. However, alternative of an electrosurgical scalpel (ES) has the advantage of adjusting the surgical margin to the transformation zone in order to preserve the maximum amount of healthy cervical tissue with good hemostasis. The aim of this study is to retrospectively analyze data regarding surgical margin status, perioperative adverse events, cervical stenosis, and preterm birth between S-T and ES.Between January 2009 and December 2014, the medical records of 1166 patients who were diagnosed as CIN II, III, or stage 1a1 cervical cancer and who were treated with conization in 7 hospitals in Gunma Prefecture, Japan were enrolled for this retrospective study. The clinicopathological data was analyzed to statistically compare outcome between S-T and ES conization.There was no difference for age or post-operative follow-up period between ES and S-T treatments. However, positive surgical margins were significantly less frequent in patients who were treated with S-T than in those treated with ES, resulting in a reduced incidence of re-treatment for S-T in comparison with ES patients. In perioperative adverse events, S-T had more patients who were administered antibiotics. The incidence of preterm delivery and cervical stenosis did not differ significantly between the groups.We demonstrate here that S-T is an alternative procedure for cervical conization with a low risk of recurrence and acceptably low rate of adverse events such as cervical stenosis and preterm delivery. The results of this study can provide useful information for future management of patient with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Predictors for recurrent/persistent high-grade intraepithelial lesions and cervical stenosis after therapeutic conization: a retrospective analysis of 522 cases. Int J Clin Oncol 2017; 22:921-926. [PMID: 28451844 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-017-1124-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2016] [Accepted: 04/11/2017] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to identify the risk factors associated with recurrent/persistent disease and cervical stenosis after conization. METHODS Five hundred twenty-two (522) cases of high-grade intraepithelial lesions treated by conization were retrospectively reviewed. Risk factors associated with recurrent/persistent disease were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis using a Cox hazard regression model. Factors that could potentially affect the risk of cervical stenosis were examined by univariate and by multivariate analysis using the χ 2 test and logistic regression, respectively. RESULTS Recurrent/persistent diseases and cervical stenosis occurred in 4.8% and 5.4% of the patients, respectively. Age ≥46 years [hazard ratio (HR) 3.6, 95% CI 1.36-10.3, p = 0.0092] and surgical margin involvement (HR 13.44, 95% CI 5.07-46.37, p < 0.001) were independent predictors for recurrent/persistent diseases. Age ≥46 years [odds ratio (OR) 4.27, 95% CI 1.88-10.07, p < 0.001] and shortened interval after childbirth to conization (within 12 months) (OR 5.42, 95% CI 1.42-17.41, p = 0.016) were independent risk factors for cervical stenosis. CONCLUSION Elderly patients (aged ≥46 years) are at high risk of recurrence and cervical stenosis, which may lead to unsatisfactory follow-up. Subsequent hysterectomy is beneficial to patients aged 46 or older with surgical margin involvement. Clinicians should recognize the possibility of cervical stenosis after conization during the breastfeeding period, leading to secondary infertility or hematometra.
