ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical data of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer(LACC)treated with preoperative radiotherapy plus chemotherapy combined with surgery. Methods Seventy patients with LACC(stage ⅠB2,ⅡA2 andⅡB)who were treated in our hospital from January 2012 to December 2016 were selected in this study.All the cases were randomly divided into two groups.The observation group(n=35)was treated with three-dimensional intracavitary brachytherapy plus chemotherapy combined with surgery, while the control group (n=35) was treated with radical radiotherapy.Patients of the two groups were followed up after the treatment.The recent and long term complications were recorded and observed in the two groups.Meanwhile,the survival curves were drawn by Kaplan-Meier,and the difference of total survival rate was compared with the Log-rank method between the two groups. Results The incidence of rectal reaction was less in the observation group than that in the control group(14.3% vs.37.1%,χ 2=4.786,P<0.05).There were no significant differences in bone marrow suppression,gastrointestinal reaction and bladder reaction between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence rates of radioactive bladder injury (8.6% vs. 31.4%) and radionuclide injury (11.4% vs. 34.2%) were less in the observation group than those in the control group(χ2=5.714 and 5.185 respectively,P<0.05).The survival analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the total survival rate between the two groups of stageⅠB2+ⅡA2 and stageⅡB patients(Log rank χ2=0.081 and 0.376,P>0.05).Conclusion For patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, preoperative radiotherapy plus chemotherapy combined with surgery can reduce the incidence of related complications, meanwhile, there is no significant difference in the total survival rate and the mean survival time after the treatment of the two methods.
