Risk factors associated with clinical prognosis of cervical cancer treated with laparoscopic surgery / 中国内镜杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with clinical prognosis of cervical cancer treated with laparoscopic surgery. Methods 80 patients with cervical cancer were recruited in the study, who underwent radical surgery with laparoscopic surgery from March 2013 to December 2016. The patients were followed up after surgery, and the overall survival and disease free survival was analyzed with tumor recurrence and death as the terminal events. And the risk factors associated with clinical prognosis were identified by using Cox regression analysis. Results The patients were followed up from 12 months to 46 months, and the median period was 39 months. There were 16 recurrences and 6 deaths during the period of follow-up, yielding a disease-free survival of (41.85 ± 1.06) year and an overall survival of (44.86 ± 0.74) year. Cox regression analysis demonstrated that tumor size, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis and vascular invasion were independent risk factors associated with clinical prognosis of cervical cancer treated with laparoscopic surgery. Conclusion Tumor size, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis and vascular invasion were independent risk factors associated with clinical prognosis of cervical cancer treated with laparoscopic surgery.
