Abstract
BACKGROUND International guidelines recommend tailoring the radicality of hysterectomy according to the known preoperative tumor characteristics in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess whether increased radicality had an effect on 5-year disease-free survival in patients with early-stage cervical cancer undergoing radical hysterectomy. The secondary aims were 5-year overall survival and pattern of recurrence. STUDY DESIGN This was an international, multicenter, retrospective study from the Surveillance in Cervical CANcer (SCCAN) collaborative cohort. Patients with the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2009 stage IB1 and IIA1 who underwent open type B/C1/C2 radical hysterectomy according to Querleu-Morrow classification between January 2007 and December 2016, who did not undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy and who had negative lymph nodes and free surgical margins at final histology, were included. Descriptive statistics and survival analyses were performed. Patients were stratified according to pathologic tumor diameter. Propensity score match analysis was performed to balance baseline characteristics in patients undergoing nerve-sparing and non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy. RESULTS A total of 1257 patients were included. Of note, 883 patients (70.2%) underwent nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy, and 374 patients (29.8%) underwent non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy. Baseline differences between the study groups were found for tumor stage and diameter (higher use of non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy for tumors >2 cm or with vaginal involvement; P<.0001). The use of adjuvant therapy in patients undergoing nerve-sparing and non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was 27.3% vs 28.6%, respectively (P=.63). Five-year disease-free survival in patients undergoing nerve-sparing vs non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was 90.1% (95% confidence interval, 87.9-92.2) vs 93.8% (95% confidence interval, 91.1-96.5), respectively (P=.047). Non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was independently associated with better disease-free survival at multivariable analysis performed on the entire cohort (hazard ratio, 0.50; 95% confidence interval, 0.31-0.81; P=.004). Furthermore, 5-year overall survival in patients undergoing nerve-sparing vs non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was 95.7% (95% confidence interval, 94.1-97.2) vs non-nerve-sparing 96.5% (95% confidence interval, 94.3-98.7), respectively (P=.78). In patients with a tumor diameter ≤20 mm, 5-year disease-free survival was 94.7% in nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy vs 96.2% in non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (P=.22). In patients with tumors between 21 and 40 mm, 5-year disease-free survival was 90.3% in non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy vs 83.1% in nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (P=.016) (no significant difference in the rate of adjuvant treatment in this subgroup, P=.47). This was confirmed after propensity match score analysis (balancing the 2 study groups). The pattern of recurrence in the propensity-matched population did not demonstrate any difference (P=.70). CONCLUSION For tumors ≤20 mm, no survival difference was found with more radical hysterectomy. For tumors between 21 and 40 mm, a more radical hysterectomy was associated with improved 5-year disease-free survival. No difference in the pattern of recurrence according to the extent of radicality was observed. Non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was associated with better 5-year disease-free survival than nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy after propensity score match analysis.

Abstract
The article focuses on fertility-sparing management during pregnancy and obstetrical management after fertility-sparing surgery. Over the years, more women in developed countries tend to delay childbirth to a later age, which leads to cervical cancer more often diagnosed during pregnancy. The advances in our understanding of prognosis and treatment options in these patients have helped us to address avenues and to circumvent standard therapy and fetal demise, respecting maternal and fetal chances. Childbearing trends also lead to an increase in the number of patients considering fertility-sparing management when diagnosed with cervical cancer. Such management represents a challenge for obstetricians as prior cervical surgery is a known risk factor for various adverse events. These include decreased fertility, second trimester miscarriage, preterm labor, or preterm premature rupture of membranes. Watchful follow-up and various prophylactic measures are keys when striving for the best possible outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Radical surgery is the standard primary treatment for patients with stage IB1 (FIGO 2009 staging) cervical cancer due to latent parametrial involvement. Recent studies suggested that less radical surgery was applicable for patients with no or low risk of parametrial involvement. In this study, we aimed to determine the incidence and possible predictive factors of parametrial involvement in patients with stage IB1 cervical cancer so as to evaluate whether less radical surgery was suitable for selected patients. METHODS Clinical data of patients who underwent type C radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy and diagnosed as stage IB1 cervical cancer at Union Hospital, Wuhan, China from October 2014 to December 2017 were collected and analysed retrospectively. The incidence of parametrial involvement was calculated and the risk factors for parametrial involvement were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS Among 282 eligible patients, 33 (11.7%) had parametrial involvement. Postmenopause, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), lymph node metastasis (LNM), deep stromal invasion (outer 1/3) and tumor size larger than 2 cm were statistically associated with parametrial involvement. Multivariate analysis showed that LNM (OR = 11.431; 95%CI: 3.455 - 37.821), deep stromal invasion (OR = 6.080; 95%CI: 1.814 - 20.382) and LVSI (OR = 7.147; 95%CI: 1.863-27.411) remained as independent risk factors for parametrial involvement in patients with stage IB1 cervical cancer. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of parametrial involvement in stage IB1 cervical cancer is non-negligible. Only LNM, LVSI and deep stromal invasion were independent predictors, which were not easy to evaluate accurately before surgery. Less radical surgery requires modified pre-treatment evaluation methods and prospective data support.

Pre-operative surgical algorithm: sentinel lymph node biopsy as predictor of parametrial involvement in early-stage cervical cancer. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2020; 30:1317-1325.

Abstract
IntroductionRadical hysterectomy is the gold standard in the management of early-stage cervical cancer. Parametrectomy aims to remove occult disease but is associated with significant surgical morbidity. Avoiding unnecessary parametrectomy in a subset of patients at low risk of parametrial involvement may decrease the incidence of such morbidity. The purpose of this study was to identify patients at low risk of parametrial involvement in early-stage cervical cancer potentially eligible for less radical surgery based on pre-operative criteria and sentinel lymph node (SLN) status.MethodsWe performed an ancillary analysis of data from two prospective trials on sentinel node biopsy for cervical cancer (SENTICOL I and II). Patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) IA–IIA cervical cancer who underwent primary radical surgery and bilateral SLN mapping were identified between 2005 and 2012 from 25 French oncologic centers. Patients who underwent pre-operative brachytherapy or did not undergo radical surgery (simple trachelectomy, simple hysterectomy, or lymph node staging only) were excluded.ResultsOf 174 patients who fullfiled the inclusion criteria, 9 patients (5.2%) had parametrial involvement and 24 patients (13.8%) had positive SLN. Most patients had 2018 FIGO stage IB1 disease (86.1%) and squamous cell carcinomas (68.9%). Parametrial involvement was significantly associated with tumor size ≥20 mm on pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (adjusted odds ratio (ORa) 9.30, 95% CI 1.71 to 50.57, p=0.01) and micrometastic or macrometastatic SLN (ORa 8.98, 95% CI 1.59 to 50.84, p=0.01). Of 114 patients with tumors <20 mm on pre-operative MRI and negative SLN after ultrastaging, only one patient had parametrial involvement (0.9%). By triaging patients with both of these criteria in a two-step surgical procedure, unjustified and contra-indicated radical hysterectomy would have been avoided in 65.5% and 8.6% of cases, respectively.ConclusionsLess radical surgery may be an option for patients with bilateral negative SLN after ultrastaging and tumors <20 mm. SLN status should be integrated into the decision-making process for tailored surgery in early-stage cervical cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Survival for patients with early stage cervical cancer without any high-risk factors treated with radical hysterectomy is excellent. However, there are few data on the survival outcomes for low-risk and intermediate-risk early stage cervical cancer patients.
Objective
To determine survival outcomes and prognostic factors of low-risk and intermediate-risk stage IB1 cervical cancer patients.
Methods
Stage IB1 cervical cancer patients with radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with positive pelvic nodes, parametrial involvement, and positive margin who are classified as high-risk patients were excluded. Patients with squamous cell carcinoma or grade 1–2 adenocarcinoma, tumor size less than 2 cm, no lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), and depth of stromal invasion (DSI) less than 10 mm were defined as low-risk patients. Survival was evaluated using the Kaplan–Meier method and compared by the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed using Cox proportional-hazards regression.
Results
There were 82 (42.3%) low-risk patients and 112 (57.7%) intermediate-risk patients. More patients in intermediate risk received adjuvant treatment (3.6% and 14.3%, P = 0.07). Three (3.6%) low-risk patients and 18 (16.1%) intermediate-risk patients had recurrent disease (P = 0.004). At median follow-up of 86 months, 1.2% of low-risk patients and 8.9% of intermediate-risk had cancer-related deaths (P = 0.02). Low-risk patients had significantly better 5-year disease-free survival (98.2% vs 91.1%, P = 0.01) and estimated 5-year overall survival (98.5% vs 91.1%, P = 0.01). DSI more than 10 mm and presence of LVSI were significantly associated with recurrence. However, LVSI was an independent prognostic factor.
Conclusion
Stage IB1 cervical cancer patients had excellent survival. Low-risk patients had significantly better survival. Presence of LVSI was an independent prognostic factor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify use and outcomes of simple hysterectomy compared with radical hysterectomy for women with early-stage cervical cancer. METHODS The National Cancer Database was used to review the cases of women with stage IA2 and IB1 (2 cm or less) cervical cancer from 2004 to 2015. Patients were classified based on whether they underwent simple or radical hysterectomy. Survival was examined after propensity score weighting. RESULTS Simple hysterectomy was performed in 44.6% of women with stage IA2 (n=1,530) and 35.3% of those with stage IB1 (n=3,931) tumors. Rates of simple hysterectomy increased from 37.8% to 52.7% from 2004 to 2014 for stage IA2 cancers and from 29.7% to 43.8% between 2004 and 2013 for stage IB1 cancers. For stage IA2 cancers, younger women and those treated at an academic medical center were less likely to undergo simple hysterectomy. For stage IB1 cancers, black women were more likely to undergo simple hysterectomy, and those treated at an academic medical center were less likely to undergo simple hysterectomy. After propensity score weighting, there was no association between route of hysterectomy and survival for stage IA2 cancers (hazard ratio [HR] 0.70, 95% CI 0.41-1.20, 5-year survival 95.1% for radical hysterectomy vs 97.6% for simple hysterectomy). For stage IB1 cancers, patients who underwent simple hysterectomy were at 55% increased risk of death (HR 1.55, 95% CI 1.18-2.03, and 5-year survival was 95.3% for radical hysterectomy vs 92.4% for simple hysterectomy). CONCLUSION Although there was no association between surgical radicality and survival for women with stage IA2 tumors, there was a 55% increase in mortality for women with stage IB1 neoplasms who underwent simple compared with radical hysterectomy. Radical hysterectomy is the treatment of choice for women with stage IB1 cervical cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical and pathological factors for predicting the parametrial involvement (PI) in early stage cervical cancer. STUDY DESIGN This study included 406 patients with type III radical hysterectomy + pelvic ± para-aortic lymphadenectomy and FIGO stage I and II cervical adenocarcinoma, squamous type, and adenosquamous type cervical cancer. RESULTS The entire cohort of patients had lymphadenectomy performed. Early stage cervical cancer patients were evaluated. FIGO 2014 stage, uterine invasion, LVSI, surgical border involvement, vaginal metastasis, stromal invasion and lymph node metastasis were found to be effective for PI on univariate analyses. However; age, tumor type and tumor size did not determine the parametrial invasion. LVSI (HR: 4.438, 95%CI: 1.771-11.121; p = 0.001), lymph node metastases (HR: 2.418, 95%CI: 1.207-4.847; p = 0.013) and vaginal involvement (HR: 4.109, 95%CI: 1.674-10.087; p = 0.02) are independent prognostic factors on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Lymph node metastases, LVSI and surgical border involvement are independent prognostic factors for PI in early stage cervical cancer patients. Therefore, less radical surgical approaches for early stage tumors with no nodal spread, negative LVSI and no surgical border involvement are applicable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the effectiveness of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) imaging in detecting parametrial invasion (PMI) in cervical stromal ring focally disrupted stage IB-IIA cervical cancers. METHODS Eighty-one patients with cervical stromal ring focally disrupted stage IB-IIA cervical cancers (PMI positive, n = 35; PMI negative, n = 46) who underwent preoperative MRI and radical hysterectomy were included in this study. Preoperative clinical variables and MRI variables were analyzed and compared. RESULTS The Ktrans (min, mean, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%), Kep (min, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%), and Ve (min, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%) values of patients with PMI were significantly higher than patients without PMI. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value did not show statistical difference between the two groups (1.01 ± 0.21 vs. 0.97 ± 0.20 10-3 mm2/s, p = 0.360). Tumor craniocaudal planes were higher in PMI-positive group than PMI-negative group (35.84 ± 15.39 vs. 29.70 ± 11.78 mm, p = 0.048). Tumor craniocaudal planes combined with Kepmin value showed the highest area under the curve (AUCs) of 0.775, with a sensitivity of 72.7% and a specificity of 71.1% (p = 0.000). CONCLUSIONS DCE parameters combined tumor craniocaudal planes may represent a prognostic indicator for PMI in cervical stromal ring focally disrupted IB-IIA cervical cancers.

Assessment of Parametrial Involvement in Early Stages Cervical Cancer With Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2019; 28:1758-1765. [PMID: 30153214 DOI: 10.1097/igc.0000000000001349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to develop a predictive model for parametrial involvement (PMI) and to identify low-risk group of PMI in early stages of cervical cancer based on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients with stages IB1 to IIA2 cervical cancer (N = 1347) who underwent type C radical hysterectomy between 2005 and 2012. Clinical records, preoperative MRI, and its association with pathological data were reviewed. A predictive model for PMI was developed using preoperative MRI parameters for the estimation of its performance. RESULTS Of 1347 patients, 138 (10.2%) had pathological PMI (p-PMI). Multivariate analysis identified the maximal tumor diameter (odds ratio, 2.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.23-3.40; P < 0.001) and PMI (odds ratio, 7.0; 95% confidence interval, 4.49-11.02; P < 0.001) on preoperative MRI (m-PMI) as independent predictive factors for p-PMI. The rate of p-PMI was 1.3% for low-risk patients identified by the current model (maximal tumor diameter ≤2.5 cm and no indication of PMI, n = 448). The 5-year progression-free survival rate was significantly greater (96.7%) in low-risk patients than in those with a maximal tumor diameter greater than 2.5 cm and/or indication of m-PMI (90.8%, P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS A predictive model for p-PMI was developed in which p-PMI exclusion was set as a maximal tumor diameter less than or equal to 2.5 cm and no indication of m-PMI. Patients with a low risk of m-PMI could be identified so that less radical surgery for stages IB1 to IIA2 cervical cancer could be offered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of cervical cancer during pregnancy is often complex and challenging. This study aimed to analyze current patterns of practice in the management of pregnant patients diagnosed with cervical cancer. METHODS This was a matched cohort study comprising patients managed for cervical cancer during pregnancy from six European centers. Patient information was retrieved from the dataset of the International Network for Cancer, Infertility and Pregnancy from 1990 to 2012. Each center matched its patients with two non-pregnant controls for age (±5 years) and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2009 stage. Information on age, histological type, grade, lymphovascular space invasion, stage, tumor size, method of diagnosis, site of recurrence, delivery, date of recurrence, and date of death was recorded. Progression-free survival was compared using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS A total of 132 pregnant patients and 256 controls were analyzed. The pregnant patients (median age 34 years, range 21-43) were diagnosed at a median gestational age of 18.4 weeks of pregnancy (range 7-39). Stage distribution during pregnancy was 14.4% for stage IA, 47.0% for IB1, 18.9% for IB2, and 19.7% for II-IV. For treatment during pregnancy, 17.4% of the patients underwent surgery, 16.7% received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 26.5% delayed their treatment, 12.9% had a premature delivery, and 26.5% had their pregnancy terminated. Median follow-up was 84 months (67 months for pregnant and 95 months for non-pregnant patients). The unadjusted hazard ratio of pregnancy for progression-free survival was 1.18 (95% confidence interval 0.74 to 1.88). CONCLUSION Surgery and chemotherapy is increasingly used in the management of pregnant patients with cervical cancer and prognosis is similar to that of non-pregnant patients.

Abstract
Surgery is a cornerstone of gynecologic oncology. Minimally invasive techniques have been adopted rapidly, in lieu of open approaches, in cervical and endometrial cancer staging. In addition, nodal assessment has undergone significant changes with the introduction of SLN biopsies. The movement toward less is more has also been seen with perioperative and postoperative care and the advent of ERAS protocols, which attempt to maintain normal physiology with the goal of improving functional recovery. It is imperative that new technology be critically evaluated to ensure that oncologic outcomes are not compromised.

Abstract
AIM The use of less radical surgery for early stage cervical cancer has often been discussed. To better determine eligible candidates for less radical surgery, we investigated the risk factors for parametrial involvement (PI). METHODS The study included 193 patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IB cervical cancer who were treated with radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy between 2008 and 2014. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether or not the parametrium was involved pathologically. The two groups were compared with regards to clinical and histopathological variables. RESULTS Univariate analysis showed that International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage, clinical tumor size, depth of stromal invasion, lymphovascular space invasion and pelvic lymph node metastasis were significantly associated with PI (P < 0.05 each). Multivariate analysis showed pelvic lymph node metastasis was an independent risk factor for PI (odds ratio, 10.70; [95% confidence interval, 3.02-48.08]; P = 0.0006). All patients with clinical tumor size less than or equal to 2 cm and negative for pelvic lymph node metastasis had no PI. CONCLUSION Cervical cancer with the tumor less than or equal to 2 cm and negative for pelvic lymph node metastasis seldom has PI. These patients are good candidates for less radical surgery.

Abstract
We aimed to identify factors predicting parametrial invasion in early-stage cervical cancer patients undergoing radical hysterectomy. We recruited women with invasive cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy at a single medical institute from 2000–2011. The clinical and pathological characteristics and outcomes were retrospectively recorded, and the risk factors for parametrial invasion were analyzed. We enrolled 339 patients, including 7 with stage IA1 carcinomas, 10 with stage IA2, 266 with stage IB1, 39 with stage IB2, 14 with stage IIA1, and 3 with stage IIA2. The majority (237/339, 69.9%) had squamous cell carcinoma, while 32 (12.4%) had parametrial invasion. The 16 patients with stage IB1 tumors and parametrial invasion were older (55.9±9.5vs. 49.0±9.9 years, p = 0.005, Mann-Whitney U test), and had deeper cervical stromal invasion (9.59±4.87 vs. 7.47±5.48 mm, p = 0.048, Mann-Whitney U test), larger tumor size (2.32±1.15 vs. 1.74±1.14cm, p = 0.043, Mann-Whitney U test), higher incidences of lymphovascular space invasion (87.5% vs. 28.8%, p<0.001, chi-square test), and greater lymph node metastasis (68.8% vs. 10.8%, p<0.001, chi-square test) than the 260 patients without parametrial invasion. Among the patients with stage IB1 tumor size >2 cm,10% had parametrial invasion and 24.2% had lymph node metastasis compared with only 4% and 9.4% of stage IB1 patients with a tumor size <2 cm, respectively. Only one (0.9%) of the 109 patients aged less than 50 years had parametrial invasion compared with 6 (9.7%) of the 62 patients aged over 50 years. Patients with stage IA2 and IB1 tumors <2 cm may not need radical hysterectomy owing to the low incidence of parametrial invasion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Advances in cervical cancer screening and treatment have resulted in high cure rates in developed countries for early-stage disease. Current research focuses on minimizing morbidity and maximizing quality of life. RECENT FINDINGS Imaging has been disappointing in identifying small volume metastases. Sentinel lymph node biopsy represents a significant advantage with high sensitivity, low false negative rates, reduced morbidity, and equivalent survival in recent studies compared to pelvic lymphadenectomy. Non-radical surgical options are currently being investigated for early cervical cancer in a number of large prospective studies in patients at low risk for metastases. Evidence suggests that sentinel lymph node biopsy and non-radical surgery are safe approaches for the staging and management of early cervical cancer in appropriately selected patients with the potential to significantly reduce treatment-related morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal of this study is to identify predictive factors in patients with a diagnosis of early-stage cervical cancer after simple hysterectomy in order to avoid a radical parametrectomy. METHODS A retrospective review was performed of all patients who underwent radical parametrectomy and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy at MD Anderson Cancer Center and at the Instituto de Cancerologia Las Americas in Medellin, Colombia from December 1999 to September 2017. We sought to determine the outcomes in patients diagnosed with low-risk factors (squamous, adenocarcinoma or adenosquamous lesions<2cm in size, and invading<10mm) undergoing radical parametrectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. RESULTS A total of 30 patients were included in the study. The median age was 40.4years (range; 26-60) and median body mass index (BMI) was 26.4kg/m2 (range; 17.7-40.0). A total 22 patients had tumors<1cm and 8 had tumors between 1 and 2cm. A total of 6 (33%) of 18 patients had evidence of lymph-vascular invasion (LVSI). No radical parametrectomy specimen had residual tumor, involvement of the parametrium, vaginal margin positivity, or lymph node metastasis. None of the patients received adjuvant therapy. After a median follow-up of 99months (range; 6-160) only one patient recurred. CONCLUSION Radical parametrectomy may be avoided in patients with low-risk early-stage cervical cancer detected after a simple hysterectomy. Rates of residual disease (parametrial or vaginal) and the need for adjuvant treatments or recurrences are very low.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for determining parametrial invasion (PMI) in cervical cancer, by stratifying them into subgroups based on a Likert scale using T2-weighted imaging (T2WI). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 87 patients with FIGO stage IA2-IIB cervical cancer who underwent preoperative MRI followed by radical hysterectomy. Radiological PMI was assessed on T2WI using a six-point Likert scale and ADC values of the tumors were measured. MRI findings were compared between patients with and without PMI. Differences in ADC according to the Likert scale were also assessed. RESULTS 19 (21.8%) patients had pathological PMI. The prevalence of PMI was significantly associated with Likert scale (P < 0.001). ADC values significantly differed according to Likert scale (P < 0.001). However, only tumors with a Likert score of 0 (MRI-invisible) had significantly greater ADC than others (P < 0.001) while no significant difference was observed among tumors with Likert scores of 1-5 (P = 0.070-0.889). Patients with PMI had significantly lower ADC values than those without PMI (P = 0.034). However, no significant difference was seen between patients with and without PMI within each Likert score group (P = 0.180-0.857). CONCLUSION T2WI-based Likert score for radiological PMI and ADC values of the tumor were significantly associated with pathological PMI. However, the apparent association seen between ADC values and PMI may be due to contribution of high ADC values of MRI-invisible tumors rather than reflecting their relationship.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe aims of study were to determine the predictive value of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for parametrial invasion (PMI) and to develop a predictive model for PMI in patients with stage IB1 to IIA2 cervical cancer.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed patients with stage IB1 to IIA2 cervical cancer (n = 215) who underwent radical hysterectomy between 2003 and 2014. The presence of PMI from postoperative pathological reports and its association with preoperative MRI findings were evaluated. We developed a predictive model for PMI using independent predictive factors identified by logistic regression and estimated its predictive performance.ResultsThirty patients (14.0%) had PMI from postoperative pathological reports. Among the preoperative MRI findings, a greater tumor diameter (4.2 vs 2.0 cm;P <0.001), a larger tumor volume (92.6 vs 12.7 cm3;P< 0.001), the presence of PMI (53.3% vs 8.6%;P< 0.001), and upper vaginal involvement (73.3% vs 22.7%;P< 0.001) were significantly associated with PMI. Multivariate analysis identified tumor volume (odds ratio, 7.0; 95% confidence interval, 2.63–18.53;P< 0.001) and PMI (odds ratio, 6.1; 95% confidence interval, 2.31–15.97;P< 0.001) from preoperative MRI findings as independent predictive factors for PMI. Our predictive model demonstrates that the presence of PMI or a tumor volume of greater than 18.0 cm3has a higher sensitivity (86.7% vs 53.3%) and lower specificity (74.6% vs 91.4%) than the presence of PMI alone. Specifically, the model's negative predictive value was superior to that of PMI only (97.2% vs 92.3%). In the low-risk group, defined as preoperative MRI findings suggesting no PMI and a tumor volume of 18.0 cm3or less, the proportion of false negative cases was just 2.8%.ConclusionsWhen tumor volume with findings suggesting that PMI is considered, preoperative MRI is useful in excluding PMI. A predictive model based on preoperative MRI findings seems to be valuable in identifying potential candidates for less radical surgery in stage IB1 to IIA2 cervical cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to preoperatively identify high- and low-risk subgroups of patients with parametrial involvement in those with FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage IB cervical cancer treated with radical hysterectomy according to menopause. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data of 197 patients with FIGO stage IB cervical cancer. None of the patients had definite evidence of parametrial invasion in a preoperative examination and underwent type III radical hysterectomy between February 2006 and March 2015. Preoperative risk criteria predicting parametrial involvement were identified in premenopausal and postmenopausal women, respectively. RESULTS Tumor size on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) more than 4 cm (odds ratio [OR], 10.029; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 2.300-43.741; P = 0.002) and serum squamous cell carcinoma-antigen level of 3.60 ng/mL or more (OR, 4.132; 95% CI, 1.086-5.723; P = 0.037) were independent factors for parametrial invasion in premenopausal women. Significant factors associated with parametrial involvement in postmenopausal women were tumor size on MRI more than 3 cm (OR, 11.353; 95% CI, 2.614-49.306; P = 0.001) and Cyfra 21-1 level of 2.40 ng/mL or more (OR, 8.048; 95% CI, 1.240-52.221; P = 0.029). Patients were categorized into low- and high-risk groups according to risk criteria. Significant differences in the rates of parametrial invasion were observed between the groups (2.3% vs 38.6% in the premenopausal group, P < 0.001; 11.1% vs 77.3% in the postmenopausal group, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS A model using preoperative tumor size on MRI, serum squamous cell carcinoma-antigen, and Cyfra 21-1 level was highly predictive of parametrial invasion in patients with FIGO stage IB cervical cancer. In particular, postmenopausal women were likely to have microscopic parametrial invasion, even among tumors 3 cm or less. Therefore, individualized approaches considering several preoperative factors are needed.

Abstract
A 34-year-old nullipara, wishing to start a family, presented to colposcopy clinic. Her most recent cervical cytology result showed high-grade dyskaryosis. Having undergone four large loop excisions of the transformation zone during the past 6 years, this woman had no remaining vaginal cervix. In order to excise presumed high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia while mitigating obstetric risk, she underwent a simple vaginal trachelectomy and isthmic cerclage. 6 months later, the patient had a negative test of cure. 7 months following surgery she became pregnant naturally. At 29 weeks she had antenatal sepsis of unknown cause, which was treated with intravenous antibiotics. She delivered by caesarean section at 37 weeks and now has a healthy child. This report will discuss the obstetric impact of colposcopic treatment, and simple vaginal trachelectomy as a fertility-sparing treatment option for women who have had multiple loop excision procedures to treat premalignant lesions.

Abstract
The accuracy of conization for the prediction of radical hysterectomy (RH) pathological variables in patients with stage Ia2 to Ib1 (≤2 cm) cervical cancer was retrospectively evaluated in the present study. Endocervical or deep resection margin (RM) involvement in the conization specimens was found to be independently associated with residual disease in the hysterectomy specimens (P < 0.001, = 0.003, respectively). When a tumor width of >20 mm in the final RH pathology analysis was predicted by a tumor width of >2 mm or involvement of endocervical or deep RMs in the conization specimens, the sensitivity and negative predictive value (NPV) of conization were 98.2% and 95.2%, respectively. In addition, when deep stromal invasion in the final RH pathology analysis was predicted by deep stromal invasion or involvement of the endocervical or deep RMs in the conization specimens, the sensitivity and NPV of conization were 98.4% and 95.8%, respectively. The sensitivity and NPV of this prediction model for identifying LVSI in the final RH pathology analysis were both 100%. These findings suggest that conization variables and endocervical and deep resection margin statuses can be analyzed to effectively predict RH pathological parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify predictive factors for residual disease in hysterectomy specimens after a loop electrical excision procedure (LEEP) or cold knife conization in early-stage cervical cancer. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective review was undertaken of the clinical records and pathology reports of 108 consecutive patients who were diagnosed with early invasive cervical cancer stage IA1 to IB1 by cold knife conization or LEEP, and underwent subsequent hysterectomy or radical hysterectomy at the Gynae-oncology Unit, Queen Elizabeth Hospital between 2000 and 2012. Residual disease was defined as the presence of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2-3 or invasive carcinoma in hysterectomy specimens. Clinicopathological factors associated with residual disease were analyzed. Risk factors for the prediction of residual disease were identified by univariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS Residual disease was found in 32 (29.7%) patients. Stage, tumour size, depth of invasion, lymphovascular space invasion, ectocervical margin, endocervical margin, and combined ectocervical and endocervical margin were significantly associated with residual disease in hysterectomy specimens on univariate analysis. On multivariate analysis, depth of invasion (odds ratio 2.1, p=0.033) and combined margin status (odds ratio 10.8, p≤0.001) were independent risk factors for residual disease. In a subgroup analysis using depth of invasion ≤5mm and a negative combined margin, none (0%) of the 52 patients who met the criteria had residual disease. CONCLUSIONS Conization (combined ectocervical and endocervical) margin and tumour depth of invasion are independent predictors of residual disease in hysterectomy specimens. A negative conization margin and depth of invasion ≤5mm are associated with low risk of residual disease in patients with early-stage cervical cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Occult invasive cervical cancer discovered after simple hysterectomy is not common, radical parametrectomy (RP) is a preferred option for young women. However, the morbidity of RP was high. The aim of our study is to assess the incidence of parametrial involvement in patients who underwent radical parametrectomy for occult cervical cancer or radical hysterectomy for early-stage cervical cancer and to suggest an algorithm for the triage of patients with occult cervical cancer to avoid RP. METHODS A total of 13 patients with occult cervical cancer who had undergone RP with an upper vaginectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were included in this retrospective study. Data on the clinicopathologic characteristics of the cases were collected. The published literature was also reviewed, and low risk factors for parametrial involvement in early-stage cervical cancer were analyzed. RESULTS Of the 13 patients, 9 had a stage IB1 lesion, and 4 had a stage IA2 lesion. There were four patients with grade 1 disease, seven with grade 2 disease, and two with grade 3 disease. The median age of the entire patients was 41 years. The most common indication for extrafascial hysterectomy was cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3. Three patients had visible lesions measuring 10-30 mm, in diameter and ten patients had cervical stromal invasions with depths ranging from 4 to 9 mm; only one patient had more than 50% stromal invasion, and four patients had lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI). Perioperative complications included intraoperative bowel injury, blood transfusion, vesico-vaginal fistula, and ileus (1 case for each). Postoperative pathologic examination results did not show residual disease or parametrial involvement. One patient with positive lymph nodes received concurrent radiation therapy. Only one patient experienced recurrence. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative complications following RP were common, whereas the incidence of parametrial involvement was very low among selected early-stage cervical cancer patients. Based on these results, we thought that patients with very low-risk parametrial involvement(tumor size ≤ 2 cm, no LVSI, less than 50% stromal invasion, negative lymph nodes) may benefit from omitting RP. Further prospective data are warranted.

Abstract
Objective All patients with stage IB1 cervical cancer do not need to undergo parametrectomy. Some low-risk criteria for parametrial involvement (PI) have been proposed based on pathological findings. The aim of this study was to determine pretreatment risk factors for PI in stage IB1 cervical cancer. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 115 patients with stage IB1 cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy or radical trachelectomy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed and serum concentrations of squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) and cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) were determined in all patients before initial treatment. The following pretreatment factors were investigated: histological variant, maximum tumor diameter, tumor volume (volume index), pelvic lymph node enlargement, and serum tumor markers. Logistic regression analysis was used to select the independent risk factors for PI. Results Eighteen of the 115 patients (15.7%) were pathologically diagnosed with PI. Multivariate analysis confirmed the following independent risk factors for PI: MRI-based tumor diameter ≥25 mm (odds ratio [OR], 9.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.1 to 48.1), MRI-based volume index ≥5,000 mm3 (OR, 13.3; 95% CI, 1.4 to 125.0), and positive serum tumor markers SCC-Ag ≥1.5 ng/mL or CA-125 ≥35 U/mL (OR, 5.7; 95% CI, 1.3 to 25.1). Of 53 patients with no risk factors for PI, none had PI. Conclusion Less radical surgery may become one of the treatment options for stage IB1 cervical cancer patients with MRI-based tumor diameter <25 mm, MRI-based volume index <5,000 mm3, and negativity for SCC-Ag and CA-125.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify a subset of patients with stage IA2-IB1 cervical cancer and small tumors (≤2cm) who could be suitable for less radical surgery. METHODS In a retrospective study, the medical records of women treated at nine hospitals in China were reviewed. Included women had undergone radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection. The clinicopathologic factors associated with uterine isthmus invasion (UII), vaginal invasion (VI), parametrial invasion (PI), lymph node metastasis (LNM), and prognosis were analyzed. RESULTS Overall, 1632 women were included. Tumor size greater than 2cm (measured postoperatively) was an independent predictor of VI (P=0.002), PI (P=0.001), and UII (P=0.021). Squamous cell carcinoma and superficial stromal invasion were associated with a low frequency of UII (P<0.001 for both). Among patients with adenocarcinoma, deep stromal invasion and lymphovascular space involvement (LVSI) were independently associated with UII (P=0.006 and P=0.004, respectively). Grade 2/3 disease (P=0.009), deep stromal invasion (P=0.015), and LVSI (P<0.001) were independently associated with LNM. LNM was the only independent adverse factor for survival (P<0.001). CONCLUSION Women with stage IA2-IB1 cervical cancer with low-risk factors could be candidates for large-scale prospective clinical trials of less radical surgery and lymphadenectomy omission.

Abstract
Background There are currently three ongoing studies on less radical surgery in cervical cancer: ConCerv, GOG-278, and SHAPE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the criteria used in ongoing studies retrospectively and suggest a new, simplified criterion in microscopic Stage IB1 cervical cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 125 Stage IB1 cervical cancer patients who had no clinically visible lesions and were allotted based on microscopic findings after conization. All patients had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after conization and underwent type C2 radical hysterectomy. We suggested an MRI criterion for less radical surgery candidates as patients who had no demonstrable lesions on MRI. The rates of parametrial involvement (PMI) were estimated for patients that satisfied the inclusion criteria for ongoing studies and the MRI criterion. Results The rate of pathologic PMI was 5.6% (7/125) in the study population. ConCerv and GOG-278 identified 11 (8.8%) and 14 (11.2%) patients, respectively, as less radical surgery candidates, and there were no false negative cases. SHAPE and MRI criteria identified 78 (62.4%) and 74 (59.2%) patients, respectively, as less radical surgery candidates; 67 patients were identified as less radical surgery candidates by both sets of criteria. Of these 67 patients, only one had pathologic PMI with tumor emboli. Conclusions This study suggests that the criteria used in three ongoing studies and a new, simplified criterion using MRI can identify candidates for less radical surgery with acceptable false negativity in microscopic Stage IB1 disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety, feasibility and effectiveness of laparoscopic approach in the management patients undergoing modified radical hysterectomy for early stage cervical cancer. METHODS Consecutive data of 157 women who had class II radical hysterectomy, for stage IA2 and stage IB1 <2 cm cervical cancer, were prospectively collected. Data of patients undergoing surgery via laparoscopy (LRH) were compared with those undergoing open surgical operations (RAH). A propensity-matched comparison (1:1) was carried out to minimize as possible selection biases. Post-operative complications were graded per the Clavien-Dindo classification. Five-year survival outcomes were assessed using Kaplan-Meier model. RESULTS After the exclusion of 37 (23.5%) patients on the basis of propensity-matching, 60 patients undergoing LRH were compared with 60 patients undergoing RAH. No between-group differences in baseline, disease and pathological variables were observed (p > 0.05). Patients undergoing surgery via laparoscopy experienced longer operative time than patients undergoing RAH; while LRH correlated whit shorter length of hospitalization and lower blood loss in comparison to RAH. Intra- and post-operative complication rate was similar between groups (p = 1.00). The execution of LRH or RAH did not influence site of recurrence (p > 0.2) as well as survival outcomes, in term of 5-year disease-free (p = 0.29, log-rank test) and overall survivals (p = 0.50, log-rank test). CONCLUSION Laparoscopic approach is a safe procedure, upholds the results of RAH, reducing invasiveness of open surgical operations. Further large prospective investigations are warranted.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare the surgical and pathological outcomes for patients with early-stage cervical cancer after abdominal radical trachelectomy (ART) and abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH).MethodsA prospective database of ART and ARH procedures performed in a standardized manner by the same surgical group was analyzed. The 3-segment technique was used for the accurate analysis of parametrial lymph nodes (PMLNs), and parametrial measurements were recorded by the same pathologist. Standard statistical tests were used.ResultBetween August 2012 and August 2013, ART was attempted in 39 patients (28.6%), and ARH was attempted in 90 patients (71.4%). The parametrium resection length was similar with ART and ARH (44.60 vs 45.48 mm, P = 0.432), as were additional surgical and pathological outcomes, including histology, lymph node positive rate, and operation time. The PMLNs were found in 28 patients (77.78%) in the ART group and in 86 (95.56%) in the ARH group (P > 0.05). Solitary PMLN metastases were observed in 3 patients (10.71%) in the ART group and in 6 (6.98%) in the ARH group. Five (55.6%) of these 9 patients had tumors of 2 cm or greater. The ARH patients (36, 40.00%) were more likely to receive postoperative chemotherapy or radiation compared with ART patients (13, 33.33%; P = 0.017). At a median follow-up of 12 and 12.5 months (P = 0.063), respectively, there were no recurrences or deaths in the ART or ARH groups.ConclusionsUsing standardized techniques, ART provides similar surgical and pathological outcomes as ARH. For the patients with tumors of 2 cm or greater, PMLNs should be examined carefully. Further prospective data are urgently needed.

Large conization and laparoendoscopic single-port pelvic lymphadenectomy in early-stage cervical cancer for fertility preservation. Case Rep Surg 2013; 2013:207191.

Abstract
Fertility preservation in early-stage cervical cancer is a hot topic in gynecologic oncology. Although radical vaginal trachelectomy (RVT) is suggested as a fertility preserving approach, there are some serious concerns like cervical stenosis, second trimester loss, preterm delivery in survivors, and lack of residual tumor in the majority of the surgical specimens. Therefore, less radical surgical operations have been proposed in early-stage cervical carcinomas. On the other hand, single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is an evolving endoscopic approach for minimal access surgery. In this report, we present a case with early-stage cervical cancer who wishes to preserve fertility. We successfully performed single-port pelvic lymphadenectomy and large conization to preserve fertility potential of the patient. We think that combination of less radical approach like conization and single-port pelvic lymphadenectomy might be less minimally invasive and is still an effective surgical approach in well-selected cases with cervical carcinomas. Incorporation of single-port laparoscopy into the minimally invasive fertility sparing management of the cervical cancer will improve patients outcome with less complications and better cosmesis. Further studies are needed to reach a clear conclusion.
