Abstract
Background To compare the pathological ndings and oncologic outcomes of stage IA cervical carcinoma patients, between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma cases. Materials and Methods A total of 151 medical records of stage IA cervical carcinoma patients undergoing primary surgical treatment during 2006-2013 were reviewed. Information from pathological diagnosis and recurrence rates were compared with descriptive statistical analysis. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model were used for survival analysis. Results The median age was 48.9 years. There was no signi cant difference in rates of lymph node, parametrium, uterine, vaginal, or ovarian metastasis, when comparing adenocarcinoma with squamous cell carcinoma. Overall recurrence rate of adenocarcinoma (5.7%) and squamous cell carcinoma (2.6%) was not statistically signi cant difference, even when strati ed by stage. When comparing progression free survival with squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma had an HR of 0.448 (0.073-2.746), p0.386. Conclusions Microinvasive adenocarcinoma of cervix has similar rate of extracervical involvement and oncologic outcomes to squamous cell carcinoma.
