Introduction: Residual or recurrent cervical cancer post-CCRT is a challenging clinical issue, even though there has been much effort in recent decades to increase patient survival after radiation. There is a paucity of literature regarding the role of hysterectomy in recurrent/residual disease after radiation in LACC patients. Such a procedure is controversial and not routinely performed because of difficulties in obtaining tumor-free margins and the high rate of associated morbidity. Aims and Objectives: Evaluate outcomes and morbidities in patients who had undergone hysterectomy for residual or recurrent disease after radiation in LACC patients. Material and Methods: This is a prospective observational study on radiotherapy-treated LACC patients (IIB-III) with residual disease or recurrent disease who have undergone adjuvant hysterectomy. This study has been conducted at AHPGIC, Cuttack, with a sample size of 30 patients. Results: 18/30 patients underwent extrafascial hysterectomy, and rest 12 patients had radical hysterectomy. No significant difference in complications, achieving tumor free margins or recurrences post adjuvant hysterectomy based on the radicality of surgery was observed. 5 cases of recurrences post-adjuvant hysterectomy were detected. Some of the factors which had significant association with recurrences post adjuvant hysterectomy were non squamous histology, no preoperative brachytherapy, deep stromal invasion and positive surgical margins. Median follow-up time was 14 months (12–27 months). Conclusion: This study shows that adjuvant hysterectomy is feasible with good outcome and acceptable morbidity after chemoradiotherapy in cervical cancer patients “If selection of patients for adjuvant hysterectomy is appropriate.” |
