What are the determinants of parametrial invasion in patients with early stage cervical cancer: A cross sectional study.


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.
