The value of endocervical curettage during large loop excision of the transformation zone in combination with endocervical surgical margin in predicting persistent/recurrent dysplasia of the uterine cervix: a retrospective study. BMC Womens Health 2024; 24:461. [PMID: 39169335 PMCID: PMC11337847 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-024-03291-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer often originates from cervical cell dysplasia. Previous studies mainly focused on surgical margins and high-risk human papillomavirus persistence as factors predicting recurrence. New research highlights the significance of positive findings from endocervical curettage (ECC) during excision treatment. However, the combined influence of surgical margin and ECC status on dysplasia recurrence risk has not been investigated. METHODS In this retrospective study, data from 404 women with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) who underwent large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) were analyzed. Records were obtained retrospectively from the hospital's patient database including information about histopathological finding from ECC, endocervical margin status with orientation of residual disease after LLETZ, recurrent/persistent dysplasia after surgical treatment and need for repeated surgery (LLETZ or hysterectomy). RESULTS Patients with cranial (= endocervical) R1-resection together with cells of HSIL in the ECC experienced re-surgery 17 times. With statistical normal distribution, this would have been expected to happen 5 times (p < 0.001). The Fisher's exact test confirmed a statistically significant connection between the resection status together with the result of the ECC and the reoccurrence of dysplasia after surgery (p < 0,001). 40,6% of the patients with re-dysplasia after primary LLETZ had shown cranial R1-resection together with cells of HSIL in the ECC. Investigating the risk for a future abnormal Pap smear, patients with cranial R1-resection together with dysplastic cells in the ECC showed the greatest deviation of statistical normal distribution with SR = 2.6. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that the future risk of re-dysplasia, re-surgery, and abnormal Pap smear for patients after LLETZ due to HSIL is highest within patients who were diagnosed with cranial (endocervical) R1-resection and with cells of HSIL in the ECC in their primary LLETZ. Consequently, the identification of patients, who could benefit of intensified observation or required intervention could be improved.

Extensive lesions and a positive cone margin are strong predictors of residual disease in subsequent hysterectomy following conization for squamous intraepithelial lesion grade 2 or 3 study design. BMC Womens Health 2023; 23:454. [PMID: 37641051 PMCID: PMC10464471 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-023-02568-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the predictive factors for post-conization of residual disease in subsequent hysterectomy for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or 3. METHODS This retrospective study included 267 patients with histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or 3 who underwent hysterectomy within 7 months after conization. Clinical data (e.g., age, menopausal status, gravidity, parity, type of transformation zone, conization method) as well as pathological data pertaining to conization and hysterectomy were collected from medical records. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between the variables and risk of residual lesions in hysterectomy samples. RESULTS Overall, 70 (26.2%) patients had residual lesions in their hysterectomy specimens. Univariate analyses revealed that age ≥ 50 years (p=0.019), endocervical gland involvement(p=0.013), positive margin(p < 0.001), and involvement of 3-4 quadrants(p < 0.001) were risk factors for residual lesions. Conversely, postmenopausal status, gravidity ≥ 3, parity ≥ 2, loop electrosurgical excision procedure, and type III transformation zone were not risk factors for residual lesions. A positive margin(p < 0.001) and multiple-quadrant involvement(p < 0.001) were identified as independent risk factors for residual lesions on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Multiple-quadrant involvement and a positive cone margin were reliable predictive factors for residual disease. Total hysterectomy or repeated cervical conization should be considered for patients with these two risk factors. The identification of high-risk patients with extensive lesions by colposcopic examination before conization is indispensable, as it will enable surgeons to perform conization with consideration of risk factors and possibly improve the approach used for the excisional procedure. For high-risk patients, colposcope-guided cold-knife conization is preferred when resources permit.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine risk factors predicting residual lesion in a subsequent hysterectomy follow a cold knife conization (CKC) for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL). METHOD Between January 2010 and December 2021, a total of 740 patients who underwent a hysterectomy within 3 months after CKC for HSIL were included in this study. We analyzed their demographic features and pathological parameters. A logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between parameters and residual lesion in subsequent hysterectomy specimens. RESULTS 104 (14.1%) had residual lesion in the hysterectomy specimen, 3 patients with microinvasive carcinoma. The rate of residual lesion in patients with positive endocervical margin was 31.3%, with positive ectocervical margin was 15.3%, with positive combine margin was 38.6%. In multivariate analysis, positive margin (OR 4.015; 95% CI 2.526-6.381; P < 0.001), glandular involvement (OR 3.484; 95% CI 1.457-8.330; P = 0.005), HPV16/18 infection (OR 2.804; 95% CI 1.705-4.611; P < 0.001) and multiple HR-HPV infection (OR 1.813; 95% CI 1.130-2.909; P < 0.014) were independent risk factors for residual lesion. The AUC calculated by logistic regression model was 0.78. CONCLUSION Positive margin, positive glandular involvement, HPV16/18 and multiple HR-HPV infection were independent high risk factors of residual lesion in a subsequent hysterectomy following CKC for HSIL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) in the treatment of patients with positive margin in comparison to regular follow-up, and a repeat cervical conization. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted using 83 patients with pathologically confirmed high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) with a positive margin after conization. The management methods and patient prognosis were analyzed and compared. RESULTS Thirty-five, 33, and 15 patients were treated for regular follow-up, ALA-PDT, and a repeat cervical conization, respectively. About 33.3% (5/15) patients had residual lesions of low-grade CIN and above after recognization. The clinical characteristics of patients in the three groups were similar. The residual lesion rates of patients selected for follow-up, ALA-PDT, and recognization were 34.3% (12/35), 9.1% (3/33), and 0% (0/15), respectively, at 6-month follow-up (p = 0.004). The HPV clearance rates were 31.3%, 66.7%, and 84.6%, respectively (p = 0.01). Further analysis showed that a positive margin in the inscribed margin of the cervical canal (p = 0.022) and persistent HR-HPV positive tests after initial conization (p = 0.003) significantly increased the risk of residual disease. At 2-year follow-up, the recurrence rates of lesions were 3.3% and 26.1% in the ALA-PDT and follow-up groups, respectively (p = 0.021). Notably, the recurrence rates were not significantly different between the ALA-PDT and recognization groups (3.3% vs. 6.7%) (p = 0.561). CONCLUSION ALA-PDT is an effective treatment for patients with a positive margin after cervical conization for high-grade CIN. Compared with regular follow-up, ALA-PDT can reduce residual and recurrence rate. Moreover, there was no significant difference in the efficacy between AlA-PDT and recognization.

Abstract
To explore the optimal way to manage patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and positive margin by identifying the risk factors for its recurrence and residue.A retrospective study was conducted on 267 cases of a pathologically confirmed HSIL with positive margin following conization by loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP) between January 2010 and December 2015. One hundred two cases were selected for regular follow-up every 6 months, and 165 cases were selected for a second surgery (repeat cervical conization or hysterectomy) within 3 months of initial LEEP. We analyzed the association between recurrent or residual diseases and these factors: age, menopausal status, ThinPrep cytologic test (TCT) results, high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection, pathological grades of the margin, number of involved margins, and glandular involvement.The recurrence rate among 102 cases who underwent follow-up was 17.6% (18/102). The factors: atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance cannot exclude HSIL (ASC-H) or higher lesions in the pre-LEEP TCT (P = .038), persistent HR-HPV infection at the 6th month post-LEEP (P = .03), HSIL-positive margin (P = .003), and multifocal-involved margin (P = .002) were significantly associated with recurrent disease, while age, menopause, and pre-LEEP HR-HPV infection were not associated with recurrent disease (P > .05). The residual rate among 165 patients who underwent a second surgery was 45.5% (75/165), of which 15 cases were residual cervical cancer. The factors: menopause (P = .02), ≥ASC-H in pre-LEEP TCT (P = .04), pre-LEEP HR-HPV infection (P = .04), ≥HSIL-positive margin (P < .001), and multifocal-involved margin (P < .001) significantly increased the risk of residual disease. No correlation existed between residual disease and age or glandular involvement (P > .05).For patients with a positive margin after LEEP, regular follow-up or second surgery should be selected according to fertility requirement and pathological characteristics of the positive margin, as well as TCT and HR-HPV infection condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 20-25% of women with high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (HSIL) have residual lesions after conization. The state of the margin is generally considered to be a risk factor for recurrence or persistent lesions. Predictors of positive margins and residual lesions need to be identified. A design for postoperative management and avoidance of overtreatment needs to be provided, especially for women of child-bearing age. METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of 1309 women of child-bearing age with HSIL, who underwent cold knife conization (CKC). Age, gravidity, parity, human papillomavirus (HPV) species, cytology, transformation zone type, results of endocervical curettage (ECC), quadrant involvement, glandular involvement, and Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) grade were analyzed. Among those with positive margins, 245 patients underwent secondary surgery within three months, including CKC, a loop electrosurgical excision procedure, and total hysterectomy. Risk factors for positive margins and residual lesions were assessed. RESULTS There was no significant difference in age, gravidity, parity, glandular involvement, and CIN grade between the two groups (P > 0.3). There was a significant difference in HPV species, cytology, ECC results, and quadrant involvement (P < 0.002). Multivariate analysis showed a major cytology abnormality, high-risk HPV infection, type III transformation zone, positive ECC result, and multiple quadrant involvement were independent risk factors for positive margins and residual lesions (P < 0.02). Age > 35 years was also a risk factor for residual lesions (P < 0.03). CONCLUSION High-risk women should be treated appropriately considering fertility. Patients with positive margins should be managed uniquely. Surgery for women without fertility may be appropriate. Close follow-up is necessary for women who have fertility requirements or are unwilling to undergo subsequent surgery if they have no risk factors, especially women < 35 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore treatment strategies for patients with positive margins after cervical cold knife conization (CKC) by estimating the risk of residual or recurrent CIN2 or worse (CIN2+). METHODS A retrospective study included 569 patients receiving CKC for CIN3 in Xiangya Hospital from January 2013 to December 2017. Demographic characteristics and test results were obtained before CKC, after CKC, at 6, 12, and 24 months, then annually thereafter. The primary end point was residual/recurrent CIN2+ post-CKC. RESULTS Fourteen (2.46%) patients had residual/recurrent CIN2+ with a median time of occurrence at 12 months post-CKC. Taking the average age and hrHPV viral load tested by Hybrid Capture 2 (HC2) as thresholds, the risk of residual/recurrent CIN2+ was higher in women aged over 40 years or with a baseline HC2 of 300 or more for the ratio of relative light units to positive cut-off values. Patients with positive margins were at higher risk of residual/recurrent CIN2+ (hazard ratio 3.66, 95% confidence interval 1.25-10.71), especially when endocervix was involved. A total of 536 (94.20%) patients received HPV testing within 6 months after CKC. Patients with both positive HPV testing results and positive margins were at the highest risk of residual/recurrent CIN2+. CONCLUSION Patients with positive endocervical margins are at high risk for residual/recurrent CIN2+, independent of the severity of margins. HPV testing within 6 months after CKC may be a feasible triage strategy for these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with the presence of positive surgical margins in cervical conization specimens. METHODS This study is a retrospective analysis of data from women who had undergone conization for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) from 2012 to 2018 at Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital. Factors extracted from the database included age, gravidity, parity, menopausal status, precone Thinprep cytology test, human papillomavirus (HPV) test, precone biopsy, precone endocervical curettage (ECC) result, conization method, operating surgeon, cone dimension, and pathology of the conization specimen, including grade of CIN, margin status and glandular involvement. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with positive margins. RESULTS Data from 495 women were analysed. The proportion of positive margins was 24.85% overall, which varied according to the conization method (27.22% for loop electrosurgical excision procedure vs. 18.52% for cold-knife conization, p = 0.047) and was increased as the severity of the treated lesion increased (10.07% for CIN2 vs. 30.62% for CIN3, p < 0.001). HPV-16 genotype infection, abnormal precone ECC result, higher grade of biopsy, larger cone length and volume, and glandular involvement were significantly associated with positive margins on univariable analysis. After logistic regression analysis, only an abnormal precone ECC result (odds ratio 1.952; 95% confidence interval 1.037-3.676; p = 0.038) remained significant. CONCLUSIONS In the present study, an abnormal precone ECC result was identified as an independent risk factor for positive margins in cervical conization specimens. More aggressive treatment may be considered in patients with abnormal precone ECC results in clinical practice.

Arch Gynecol Obstet 2018; 298:971-979. [PMID: 30218185 DOI: 10.1007/s00404-018-4899-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2017] [Accepted: 09/06/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Aberrant DNA methylation is present in virtually all types of human cancer. There is no clear evidence that methylation status can predict bad prognosis in patients with CIN recurrence in HIV infected. This study evaluates the relationship between aberrant methylation of CpG islands of CDH1, TIMP3 and MGMT genes and CIN recurrence in HIV-infected and -noninfected women. METHODS This is a nested case-control study involving 33 cases with CIN recurrence and 114 controls without recurrence, HIV infected and noninfected, treated with LEEP, between 1999 and 2004. Recurrence diagnosis was established after biopsy. Genes methylation profile was assessed by MSP-PCR technique in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded cone specimens. Statistical analysis was performed to compare categorical variables, using χ2 test with Yates correction and Fisher's exact test. Multivariate analysis was carried out using logistic regression. RESULTS CIN recurrence was more frequent in women with glandular involvement (OR 11.6; 95% CI 2.93-45.89) and compromised surgical margins (OR 2.5; 95% CI 0.87-7.27) in the cervical cone and in HIV-infected women (OR 2.47; 95% CI 0.87-7.05). One methylated allele of CDH1, TIMP3 and MGMT genes was present in 87.9% women with CIN recurrence. Promoter hypermethylation of TIMP3 and MGMT was detected in women with CIN recurrence and without CIN recurrence independent of HIV infection with significant difference between groups (p = 0.04 and p = 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSIONS CIN recurrence was associated with glandular involvement and compromised margins in cone biopsy and HIV infection. The presence of CpG islands hemimethylation in TIMP3 and MGMT genes is a promising triage method in CIN recurrence.

Abstract
Objective to study the association between the histological grading of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN I, CIN II and CIN III) and the immunohistochemical expression for p16ink4a, hTert and Ki67, as well as to evaluate the relationship of these markers with the risk of recurrence after surgical treatment. Methods we studied a historical cohort of 94 women with intraepithelial lesions CIN I (low grade), CIN II and CIN III (high grades) submitted to conization or electrosurgical excision of the transformation zone. We evaluated all surgical specimens for immunohistochemical expression of p16ink4a, hTert and Ki67. Results the mean age was 38.2 years; p16ink4a was absent in most CIN I cases. In patients with CIN II or I/II (association of low and high-grade lesions), we observed p16ink4a ≤10%. In patients with CIN III, we found a higher expression frequency of p16ink4a >50%. In CIN I, the majority had Ki67≤10% and low frequency of Ki67>50%. In the CIN III category, there were fewer patients with Ki67≤10%, and Ki67 was absent in most patients of CIN II and III groups. There was no association between hTert expression and histologic grade. There were no statistically significant differences between the expression of the markers in patients with and without recurrence. Conclusion there was a statistically significant association of p16ink4a and Ki67 with histological grade. The markers' expression, as for disease recurrence, was not statistically significant in the period evaluated.

Risk of persistent or recurrent cervical neoplasia in patients with 'pure' adenocarcinoma-in-situ (AIS) or mixed AIS and high-grade cervical squamous neoplasia (cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia grades 2 and 3 (CIN 2/3)): a population-based study. BJOG 2017; 125:74-79.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes of patients with pure adenocarcinoma-in-situ (AIS) and mixed AIS/CIN 2/3 lesions including the incidence of AIS persistence, recurrence and progression to adenocarcinoma. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Statewide population in Western Australia. POPULATION Women diagnosed with AIS between 2001 and 2012. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, population-based cohort study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES De-identified linked data were utilised to ascertain the association between patient age at excisional treatment, margin status, lesion type, lesion size, and risk of persistent AIS (defined as the presence of AIS <12 months from treatment), recurrent AIS (≥12 months post-treatment), and adenocarcinoma. RESULTS 636 patients were eligible for analysis. The mean age was 32.3 years and median follow-up interval was 2.5 years. Within the study cohort, 266 patients (41.8%) had pure AIS and 370 (58.2%) had mixed AIS/CIN 2/3. Overall, 47 patients (7.4%) had AIS persistence/recurrence and 12 (1.9%) had adenocarcinoma. Factors associated with persistence/recurrence were pure AIS (hazard ratio (HR) 2.3; 95%CI 1.28-3.94; P = 0.005), age >30 years (HR 2.1; 95%CI 1.16-3.81; P = 0.015), positive endocervical margins (HR 5.8; 95%CI 3.05-10.92; P = <0.001) and AIS lesions >8 mm (HR 2.5; 95%CI 1.00-6.20; P = 0.049). A histologically positive AIS ectocervical margin was not associated with persistence/recurrence. CONCLUSION In this study, pure AIS was associated with greater risk of persistence/recurrence than was mixed AIS/CIN 2/3. AIS lesions >8 mm and positive endocervical margins were significant predictors for persistent or recurrent disease. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Pure cervical adenocarcinoma-in-situ (AIS) may have greater risk of recurrence than AIS co-existing with CIN 2/3.

Abstract
This study aims to develop a prediction model for spontaneous regression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN 2) lesions based on simple clinicopathological parameters. The study was conducted at Maastricht University Medical Center, the Netherlands. The prediction model was developed in a retrospective cohort of 129 women with a histologic diagnosis of CIN 2 who were managed by watchful waiting for 6 to 24months. Five potential predictors for spontaneous regression were selected based on the literature and expert opinion and were analyzed in a multivariable logistic regression model, followed by backward stepwise deletion based on the Wald test. The prediction model was internally validated by the bootstrapping method. Discriminative capacity and accuracy were tested by assessing the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and a calibration plot. Disease regression within 24months was seen in 91 (71%) of 129 patients. A prediction model was developed including the following variables: smoking, Papanicolaou test outcome before the CIN 2 diagnosis, concomitant CIN 1 diagnosis in the same biopsy, and more than 1 biopsy containing CIN 2. Not smoking, Papanicolaou class <3, concomitant CIN 1, and no more than 1 biopsy containing CIN 2 were predictive of disease regression. The AUC was 69.2% (95% confidence interval, 58.5%-79.9%), indicating a moderate discriminative ability of the model. The calibration plot indicated good calibration of the predicted probabilities. This prediction model for spontaneous regression of CIN 2 may aid physicians in the personalized management of these lesions.
