Abstract
Objective To investigate the performance of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics models in differentiating early stage of cervical cancer (Stage I-IIa vs. IIb-IV). Methods One hundred patients with cervical cancer who underwent preoperative MRI between June 2020 and March 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. Training (n = 70) and testing cohorts (n = 30) were assigned by stratified random sampling. The clinical and pathological features, including age, histological subtypes, tumor grades, and node status, were compared between the two cohorts by t-test or chi-square test. Radiomics features were extracted from each volume of interest (VOI) on T2-weighted images (T2WI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps. The data balance of the training cohort was resampled by synthesizing minority oversampling techniques. Subsequently, the adiomics signatures were constructed by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator algorithm and minimum-redundancy maximum-relevance with 10-fold cross-validation. Logistic regression was applied to predict the cervical cancer stages (low [I-IIa]) and (high [IIb-IV] FIGO stages). The receiver operating characteristic curve (area under the curve [AUC]) and decision curve analysis were used to assess the performance of the radiomics model. Results The characteristics of age, histological subtypes, tumor grades, and node status were not significantly different between the low [I-IIa] and high [IIb-IV] FIGO stages (p > 0.05 for both the training and test cohorts). Three models based on T2WI, ADC maps, and the combined were developed based on six radiomics features from T2WI and three radiomics features from ADC maps, with AUCs of 0.855 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.777-0.934) and 0.823 (95% CI, 0.727-0.919), 0.861 (95% CI, 0.785-0.936) and 0.81 (95% CI, 0.701-0.918), 0.934 (95% CI, 0.884-0.984) and 0.902 (95% CI, 0.832-0.972) in the training and test cohorts. Conclusion The radiomics models combined T2W and ADC maps had good predictive performance in differentiating the early stage from locally advanced cervical cancer.

Survival outcomes of laparoscopic versus open radical hysterectomy in early cervical cancer with incidentally identified high-risk factors. Gynecol Oncol 2023; 174:224-230. [PMID: 37229880 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.05.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previously, we suggested that patients with cervical cancer (CC) with tumors ≤2 cm on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are safe candidates for laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH). Here, we aim to investigate whether LRH deteriorates the prognosis of patients with incidentally identified high-risk factors; lymph node metastasis (LNM) or parametrial invasion (PMI). METHODS We identified patients with 2009 FIGO stage IB1 CC who underwent Type C LRH or open radical hysterectomy (ORH) at three tertiary hospitals between 2000 and 2019. Those with a tumor ≤2 cm on preoperative MRI who were not suspicious of LNM or PMI preoperatively were included, while those who were indicated to receive adjuvant treatment but did not actually receive it were excluded. Survival outcomes were compared between the LRH and ORH groups in the overall population, then narrowed down to those with LNM, and then to those with PMI. RESULTS In total, 498 patients were included: 299 in the LRH group and 199 in the ORH group. The LRH and ORH groups showed similar 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) (94.0% vs. 93.6%; P = 0.615) and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates (97.2% vs. 96.8%; P = 0.439). On pathologic examination, 49 (9.8%) and 16 (3.2%) patients had LNM and PMI, respectively, and 10 (2.0%) had both. In the LNM subgroup, 5-year PFS rate was not significantly different between the LRH and ORH groups (73.2% vs. 91.7%; P = 0.169). In the PMI subgroup, no difference in PFS was observed between the two groups (P = 0.893). CONCLUSIONS LRH might not deteriorate recurrence and mortality rates in CC patients with tumors ≤2 cm when adjuvant treatment is appropriately administered, even if pathologic LNM and PMI are incidentally identified.

Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2022; 79:104020. [PMID: 35860149 PMCID: PMC9289433 DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction There was an increase in number of patients presented with early-stage cervical cancer (CC). Tumors with favorable pathological features might be candidates for less radical surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 700 patients with histologically confirmed CC between January 2011 and March 2020. Chi-square, Fisher's exact tests and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to assess relations between parametrial involvement (PI) and clinic-pathological variables. Results Total number of 132 patients with stage IA to IIA were eligible to participate. Squamous cell carcinoma was reported in 100 (75.8%) patients, adenocarcinoma and other tumor pathologies were found in 24(18.2%) and 8(6.1%), respectively. Considering the 2018 FIGO stage, 11 (8.4%) patients had IA, 111 (83%%) IB and 10 (7.6%) IIA. Nine patients (6.8%) had PI on permanent pathologic report. Univariate analysis demonstrated that following variables were statistically different between patients with and without PI: age ≥50, tumor size ≥ 3 cm, lower segment involvement, poorly differentiated pathology, deep stromal invasion, pelvic lymph node, lympho-vascular involvement and positive surgical margin (all p values < 0.05). Among these variables only tumor size ≥3 cm (OR: 2.1, 95% CI: 1.11–4.16, p value: 0.02), deep stromal invasion (OR: 2.2, 95% CI: 1.9–7.43, p value: 0.02) and positive surgical margin (OR: 5.1, 95% CI: 3.97–11.15, p value: 0.008) were independent risk factor of PI in multivariate analysis. Conclusions Early stage CC might be surgically approached in a more conservative manner if patients have tumor size <3 cm and do not have deep stromal invasion in conization. The parametrium was resected, in order to remove occult disease at the time of extirpation of the primary cervical lesion. This study revealed, tumor size, deep stromal invasion and surgical margin were independent risk factors for parametrial invasion. Selected patients in early stages of cervical cancer are possible candidates to undergo a more conservative approach.

Is the pathologic tumor size associated with survival in early cervical cancer treated with radical hysterectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy? Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol 2022; 61:329-332. [PMID: 35361396 DOI: 10.1016/j.tjog.2022.02.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 01/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In 2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging system of uterine cervix cancer, size criteria of primary tumor has been revised. This study aimed to evaluate the validity of this new size criteria (<2, 2-4, and ≧4 cm) in patients who underwent radical hysterectomy and adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) for early cervical cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively examined 312 patients who underwent radical hysterectomy and adjuvant RT for early cervical cancer (IB-IIA) from 2001 to 2014. The effects of clinical and pathological factors on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated in univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 71.5 months, the 5-year DFS and OS rates were 89.5% and 94.7%, respectively. The primary tumor size was not a significant factor for DFS (p = 0.382) or OS (p = 0.725) in all patients. CONCLUSION Primary tumor size was not a significant factor for survival in patients who received hysterectomy and adjuvant RT for early cervical cancer. Adequacy of new tumor size criteria (<2, 2-4, and ≧4 cm) in new 2018 FIGO stage needs to be validated in further studies.

Can Conization Specimens Predict Sentinel Lymph Node Status in Early-Stage Cervical Cancer? A SENTICOL Group Study. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13215423. [PMID: 34771586 PMCID: PMC8582355 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13215423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2021] [Revised: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Lymph node involvement is one of the major prognosis factors for early-stage cervical cancer. Improvement in preoperative identification of node-positive patients may lead to a more accurate triage to primary chemoradiation for these patients instead of radical surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy, given the increased morbidity of combined treatment. Several studies have well established risk factors for node involvement, but they are based on final pathologic examination of radical hysterectomy specimens and are usually extrapolated for preoperative risk assessment. Among these risk factors, tumor size, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) and depth of stromal invasion might be assessed in conization specimens. Our findings suggest that patients with depth of stromal invasion lower than 10 mm and no LVSI in conization specimens had lower risk of micro- and macrometastatic SLN. In this subpopulation, full node dissection may be questionable in case of SLN unilateral detection. Abstract Background: The prognosis of patients with cervical cancer is significantly worsened in case of lymph node involvement. The goal of this study was to determine whether pathologic features in conization specimens can predict the sentinel lymph node (SLN) status in early-stage cervical cancer. Methods: An ancillary analysis of two prospective multicentric database on SLN biopsy for cervical cancer (SENTICOL I and II) was carried out. Patients with IA to IB2 2018 FIGO stage, who underwent preoperative conization before SLN biopsy were included. Results: Between January 2005 and July 2012, 161 patients from 25 French centers fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Macrometastases, micrometastases and Isolated tumor cells (ITCs) were found in 4 (2.5%), 6 (3.7%) and 5 (3.1%) patients respectively. Compared to negative SLN patients, patients with micrometastatic and macrometastatic SLN were more likely to have lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) (60% vs. 29.5%, p = 0.04) and deep stromal invasion (DSI) ≥ 10 mm (50% vs. 17.8%, p = 0.04). Among the 93 patients with DSI < 10 mm and absence of LVSI on conization specimens, three patients (3.2%) had ITCs and only one (1.1%) had micrometastases. Conclusions: Patients with DSI < 10 mm and no LVSI in conization specimens had lower risk of micro- and macrometastatic SLN. In this subpopulation, full node dissection may be questionable in case of SLN unilateral detection.

J Gynecol Obstet Hum Reprod 2021; 50:102145. [PMID: 33848645 DOI: 10.1016/j.jogoh.2021.102145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2021] [Revised: 04/05/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
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.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:E7103. [PMID: 32998288 PMCID: PMC7579067 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17197103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2020] [Revised: 09/17/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
We aimed to investigate the outcomes and subsequent pregnancies of early-stage cervical cancer patients who received conservative fertility-sparing surgery. Women with early-stage cervical cancer who underwent conservative or fertility-sparing surgery in a tertiary medical center were reviewed from 2004 to 2017. Each patient's clinicopathologic characteristics, adjuvant therapy, subsequent pregnancy, and outcome were recorded. There were 32 women recruited, including 12 stage IA1 patients and 20 stage IB1 patients. Twenty-two patients received conization/LEEP and the other 10 patients received radical trachelectomy. Two patients did not complete the definite treatment after fertility-sparing surgery. There were 11 women who had subsequent pregnancies and nine had at least one live birth. The live birth rate was 73.3% (11/15). We conclude that patients with early-stage cervical cancer who undergo fertility-sparing surgery can have a successful pregnancy and delivery. However, patients must receive a detailed consultation before surgery and undergo definitive treatment, if indicated, and regular postoperative surveillance.

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. [DOI: 10.1136/ijgc-2020-001586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2020] [Revised: 06/09/2020] [Accepted: 06/11/2020] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
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
BACKGROUND We aimed to establish a tool predicting parametrial involvement (PI) in patients with early-stage cervical cancer and select a sub-group of patients who would most benefit from a less radical surgery. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients from two prospective multicentric databases-SENTICOL I and II-from 2005 to 2012. Patients with early-stage cervical cancer (FIGO 2018 IA with lympho-vascular involvement to IIA1), undergoing radical surgery (hysterectomy or trachelectomy) with bilateral sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping with no metastatic node or PI on pre-operative imaging, were included. RESULTS In total, 5.2% patients (11/211) presented a histologic PI. After univariate analysis, SLN status, lympho-vascular space invasion, deep stromal invasion and tumor size were significantly associated with PI and were included in our nomogram. Our predictive model had an AUC of 0.92 (IC95% = 0.86-0.98) and presented a good calibration. A low risk group, defined according to the optimal sensitivity and specificity, presented a predicted probability of PI of 2%. CONCLUSION Patients could benefit from a two-step approach. Final surgery (i.e. radical surgery and/or lymphadenectomy) would depend on the SLN status and the probability PI calculated after an initial conization with bilateral SLN mapping.
