Objective: To describe the nationwide trends in the utilization of trachelectomy among Taiwanese women with surgically resectable cervical cancer over the past decade, and to compare associated demographic characteristics, in-hospital complications and related outcomes using a population-based dataset from 1998 to 2013. Materials and methods: We conducted a population-based, cohort study using inpatient admission claims data of Taiwan's National Health Insurance program. Women who underwent trachelectomy for cervical cancers were compared by age at surgery (younger than 40 years, 40–59 years, and 60 years or older). Results: Our study cohort consisted of 156 women. The overall utilization increased considerably during the study period, particularly in younger women aged 30–39 years. Compared with older women who had trachelectomy, women younger than 40 years were diagnosed more frequently in the later years of study (2007–2013, 69.9% vs 37.3%), were treated more frequently at medical centers (89.0% vs 60.2%) by physicians aged 55 years or older (50.7% vs 22.9%) with high case volume (50.7% vs 26.5%), were less likely to undergo concomitant surgeries for bilateral oophorectomy (1.4% vs 21.7%) and lysis of peritoneal adhesion (2.7% vs 24.1%), and were more likely to undergo lymph node excision (74.0% vs 47.0%) (P |
