205 Minimally invasive approaches in locally advanced cervical cancer patients undergoing radical surgery after chemoradiotherapy: a propensity score analysis
Objectives To evaluate the oncological and surgical outcome of minimally invasive radical surgery (MI-RS) compared to open radical surgery (O-RS) in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) after preoperative chemoradiation (CT/RT). Methods Data relative to stage IB2-IVA cervical cancer patients managed by CT/RT and RS were retrospectively analyzed. Results Starting from 686 patients, the propensity score matching resulted in 462 cases (231 per group), balanced for FIGO stage, lymph node status, histotype, tumor grade and clinical response to CT/RT. Overall, 107 recurrences were registered with no difference in the pattern of recurrences between the two surgical approaches. The 5-year diseas…
343 External validation of tumour-free distance as novel prognostic marker in early-stage cervical cancer undergoing primary surgery
Introduction Tumor-free distance (TFD), defined as the minimum distance of uninvolved stroma between the tumor and peri-cervical stromal ring, was recently proposed as predictive marker of recurrence in patients with early-stage cervical cancer treated by primary surgery (particularly if ≤3.5 mm). The aims of the present study were to assess the prognostic value of TFD and to compare TFD with other known prognostic markers in early-stage cervical cancer. Methods Patients with pathologic FIGO 2009 stage IA1-IIB cervical cancer, treated by primary radical surgical treatment between 01/2000 and 12/2018, were retrospectively included. Adjuvant treatment was administered according to the presenc…
EP260 Is there still a role for laparoscopic radical hysterectomy? Personalizing surgical approach in early stage cervical cancer
Introduction/Background To compare survival outcomes of laparoscopic and open surgery for radical hysterectomy (RH) among patients with early-stage cervical cancer (CC) and to identify which subgroups may benefit from one approach rather than the other. Methodology 237 and 303 consecutive patients, with clinical FIGO stage from IA1 with lymph vascular space involvement to IB1/IIA1 CC underwent open and laparoscopic RH respectively in 3 Italian Institutions. Differences in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) between the two surgical approaches were tested in the entire population and in different patient‘s subgroups. Results Median follow up was 34 months. Open and laparoscopy procedure…
Minimally Invasive Approaches in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer Patients Undergoing Radical Surgery After Chemoradiotherapy: A Propensity Score Analysis
Abstract Purpose Chemoradiation (CT/RT) followed by radical surgery (RS) may play a role in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) patients with suboptimal response to CT/RT or in low-income countries with limited access to radiotherapy. Our aim is to evaluate oncological and surgical outcomes of minimally invasive radical surgery (MI-RS) compared with open radical surgery (O-RS). Patients and Methods Data for stage IB2–IVA cervical cancer patients managed by CT/RT and RS were retrospectively analyzed. Results Beginning with 686 patients, propensity score matching resulted in 462 cases (231 per group), balanced for FIGO stage, lymph node status, histotype, tumor grade, and clinical respons…
