Oncologic and obstetric outcomes after conization for adenocarcinoma in situ or stage IA1 cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: This study aims to reveal the risk factors associated with recurrence or new-onset high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) or more severe lesions (HSILs?+) and analyze obstetrical outcomes in patients with adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) or stage IA1 cervical cancer patients after conization. A retrospective cohort study was developed from January 1, 2002, and July 1, 2018, in a single center, where all patients with AIS or stage IA1 cervical cancer who accepted conization for primary surgery were reviewed and followed up until July 1, 2019, for the pathological findings of HSILs?+?and obstetric outcomes. Two hundred and seventeen patients were identified, including 114 cases of AIS, 76 cases of stage IA1 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and 27 cases of stage IA1 adenocarcinoma (ADC). A total of 88 (40.6%) patients had an intact uterus without radiotherapy. Five patients experienced HSIL+ recurrence. The cumulative 3-, 5- and 10-year incidence rates of HSILs?+?were 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0%, respectively. No significant risk factors, including primary disease, margin status and hysterectomy, were associated with recurrence. Twenty (66.7%) of 30 patients who attempted pregnancy had 23 successful pregnancies, which result in 7 miscarriages, 16 live births and 5 preterm births. Age at conization was the only independent risk factor associated with pregnancy, live births and preterm births. In conclusion, conization is safe for young women with AIS, stage IA1 SCC and ADC who desire future fertility, and the associated HSIL recurrence rate is low. Increased age significantly lowered the conception or live birth rate.
