Radical hysterectomy

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to predict the risk posed by postoperative adjuvant therapy using preoperative variables in young patients with early stage cervical cancer. The predicted risk can guide whether ovarian transposition should be performed during surgery. METHODS: This multicenter retrospective study was conducted using data from the Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group (KGOG) 1028 study. In total, 886 patients with stage IB1-IIA cervical cancer aged 20-45 years who underwent modified radical or radical hysterectomy between January 2000 and December 2008 were included...

BACKGROUND: The lymph node ratio (LNR) is an emerging prognostic biomarker in multiple malignancies. This study aimed to explore the prognostic role of LNR in patients with non-metastatic cervical cancer undergoing radical hysterectomy. METHODS: Data were extracted from the SEER 17 registry. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses were performed to identify the prognostic factors associated with cancer-specific survival (CSS). A nomogram was constructed to predict the 5-year and 10-year CSS...

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to present our initial experience and prove the feasibility of total intracorporeal laparoscopic ileal ureter replacement (TILIUR) in a single position for ureteral stricture based on membrane anatomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2021 and April 2023, six patients underwent TILIUR in a single position for ureteral strictures based on membrane anatomy. All patients with a past medical history underwent radical hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection as well as extensive ureteral stricture due to radiotherapy...

BACKGROUND: This systematic review (SR) and meta-analysis aims to compare the surgery-related results and oncological outcomes between SH and RH in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. METHOD: We systematically searched databases including PubMed, Embase and Cochrane to collect studies that compared oncological and surgery-related outcomes between SH and RH groups in patients with stage IA2 and IB1 cervical cancer. A random-effect model calculated the weighted average difference of each primary outcome via Review Manager V...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Intra veinous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is one pathology of a known group of ectopic leiomyomatosis that gathers many entities all defined by the presence of benign tumours arising from uterine smooth muscle cells. The authors aim through this case report to address the underdiagnosis of IVL in pre-menopausal women and the potential confusion with other cardiac tumours. CASE PRESENTATION: A 48-year-old woman initially treated for a suspected intracardiac myxoma underwent two surgeries...

Minimally invasive surgery on treatment of early-stage cervical cancer is debatable. Traditional approaches of colpotomy are considered responsible for an inferior oncological outcome. Evidence on whether protective colpotomy could optimize minimally invasive technique and improve prognoses of women with early-stage cervical cancer remains limited. We produced a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare oncological outcomes of the patients treated by minimally invasive radical hysterectomy with protective colpotomy to those treated by open surgery according to existing literature...

The aim of this study was to compare survival outcomes of 3 different radical hysterectomy (RH) types, namely total abdominal radical hysterectomy (TARH), total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (TLRH), and laparoscopy-assisted radical vaginal hysterectomy (LARVH), in patients with FIGO stage IB2 cervical cancer. We retrospectively identified a cohort of patients who underwent RH for cervical cancer between 2010 and 2017. Patients with stage IB2 cervical cancer were included and were classified into TARH, TLRH, and LARVH treatment groups...

OBJECTIVE: We sought to evaluate the oncologic outcomes of simple hysterectomy in patients with low-risk early-stage cervical cancer (tumors ≤2 cm with limited stromal invasion). METHODS: This study was registered in PROSPERO (registration number CRD42023433840) following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) checklist. MEDLINE (through Ovid), EmMBASEbase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception until June 2023...

The purpose was to investigate the safety and advantages of different surgical approaches applied to overweight or obese cervical cancer patients by comparing their surgical and oncological outcomes. This is a retrospective cohort study. 382 patients with a body mass index of at least 24.0 kg/m2 and stage IB-IIA (The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics, FIGO 2009) cervical cancer were enrolled, and then were divided into three groups: open radical hysterectomy (ORH) group, laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) group, and robot-assisted radical hysterectomy (RRH) group according to the surgical approach...

OBJECTIVES: Laparoscopic surgery for cervical cancer has the advantages of little blood loss and rapid recovery, but its therapeutic effect is still controversial. This study aims to analyze the surgical procedure and clinical efficacy of tumor-free laparoscopic radical hysterectomy without a uterine manipulator for early-stage cervical cancer, and to explore the indications of laparoscopic surgery for cervical cancer. METHODS: This study was a retrospective study...

BACKGROUND: Concurrent chemoradiation is the standard treatment for advanced cervical cancer. However some patients still have a poor prognosis, and currently, there is no effective treatment for recurrence. In recent years, 125I seed implantation therapy has emerged as a treatment for advanced malignant tumors including surgically unresectable tumors, residual tumors after surgical resection, and metastatic tumors. However, the use of 125I seeds implantation in primary advanced cervical cancer has not been reported...

Gastric-type endocervical adenocarcinoma (GEA), a rare subtype of cervical cancer, has garnered increasing attention recently for its distinctive histopathological features, unique classification, genetic characteristics, and variable clinical outcomes compared to squamous cell and adenocarcinoma subtypes. Historically, GEA has evolved from a poorly understood entity to a distinct subtype of cervical adenocarcinoma, only recently recognized in the 2020 World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Accordingly, characteristic morphological features define GEA, shedding light on the diagnostic challenges and potential misclassification that can occur in clinical practice...

OBJECTIVE: This study compared the outcomes of laparotomic radical hysterectomy (LRH) and minimally invasive radical hysterectomy (MISRH) in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. METHODS: The clinical data of patients with early-stage cervical cancer who underwent LRH or MISRH (laparoscopic/robotic) at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou Branch, from 2002 to 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. The surgical safety (operation time, blood loss, blood transfusion rate, length of postoperative stay, and perioperative complications), overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and recurrence pattern were analyzed...

Occult cervical cancer is rare and is diagnosed incidentally after a simple hysterectomy. The staging upon histological examination is usually International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage I, rarely higher with negative preoperative diagnostic tests such as a Pap smear. The clinical case in question is a rare case of cervical carcinoma diagnosed at the time of hysterectomy with a negative exo-endocervical Pap smear, diagnostic tests including transvaginal ultrasound, abdominal magnetic resonance imaging and abdominal computed tomography with a diagnosis of degenerating myoma or suspected sarcoma...

BACKGROUND: Robotic technique of surgery allows surgeons to perform complex procedures in difficult-to-access areas of the abdominal/pelvic cavity (eg, radical prostatectomy and radical hysterectomy) with improved access and precision approach. At the same time, automated techniques efficiently deliver propofol total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with lower anesthetic consumption. As both above are likely to bring benefit to the patients, it is imperative to explore their effect on postanesthesia recovery...

BACKGROUND: Retrospective data suggest that the incidence of parametrial infiltration is low in patients with early-stage low-risk cervical cancer, which raises questions regarding the need for radical hysterectomy in these patients. However, data from large, randomized trials comparing outcomes of radical and simple hysterectomy are lacking. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial comparing radical hysterectomy with simple hysterectomy including lymph-node assessment in patients with low-risk cervical cancer (lesions of ≤2 cm with limited stromal invasion)...

Metastasis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (clear cell RCC) to the gynecologic tract is infrequent, and involvement of the uterus is extremely rare. A review of the literature identified a total of 12 reported examples with metastasis to the uterine serosa (1), endometrium (5), cervix (5) and only one with metastasis to the myometrium. This report represents the first case of tumor-to-tumor metastasis involving a clear cell RCC with metastasis to a uterine leiomyoma. The patient was a 50-year-old woman status post-radical nephrectomy for newly diagnosed unilateral clear cell RCC (stage pT3a) with negative margins, who subsequently underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for the incidental finding of multiple uterine masses measuring up to 14...

Cervical ectopic pregnancy is the rarest kind of ectopic pregnancy, and it is known as the implantation of an embryo into the cervical mucosa. It is commonly associated with complications such as hemorrhage from the cervix and can lead to severe consequences if it is not treated early. For this reason, the treatment for a cervical pregnancy often requires an abdominal hysterectomy. To avoid such radical management, several conservative methods of termination have been used. In this paper, we report a complex management of one of our ectopic cervical cases, which includes embolization of the uterine arteries, treatment with methotrexate and mifepristone, evacuation of the pregnancy followed by local hemostatic sutures and application of a balloon in the cervix...

INTRODUCTION: This study was designed to compare three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopy and conventional two-dimensional (2D) laparoscopy in surgical performance and clinical assessment during laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy (LRHND) for treating early-stage cervical cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this study, we included 67 consecutive patients underwent LRHND for treating early-stage cervical cancer by the experienced laparoscopic surgeons between August 2018 and December 2020...
