Abstract
|
|
|
We have reviewed 19 cases of cervical stump cancer treated at the Seoul National and Soonchunhyang University Hospital from 1983 to 1993. Patients were treated with external beam radiation and/or intracavitary radiation. Median follow up period
is
39
months. The absolute disease free, and overall survival rate for all patients are 51% and 70%, respectively. Six pelvic failures and two distant metastasis were observed. Recurrences were more common in external radiotherapy only or external
radiotherapy plus colpostat application group than in the external radiotherapy plus tandem and colpostat treatment group. The grade 2 complication rate was 21%(4/19) but there were no life threatening complications. Radiation therapy is
effective
for
the treatment of cervical stump cancer.
