Results of postoperative radiotherapy for clinical stage Ib uterine cervical carcinoma with evidence of microscopic involvement of surgical margin, parametrium and/or lymph node metastasis.

From January 1979 to September 1985, a total of 125 patients preoperatively staged as International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) Ib uterine cervical carcinoma were proven to have either microscopic involvement of the surgical margin, parametrium and/or regional lymph node metastasis histopathologically after radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. All of these patients were treated postoperatively with radiotherapy because of the above indications. Based on indications of postoperative radiotherapy, patients were divided into 3 major subgroups according to the microscopic involvement: group A patients (50) with microscopic evidence of regional lymph node metastasis only; group B patients (59) with microscopic evidence of parametrial involvement; and group C patients (16) with microscopic infiltration of the surgical margin involving the vaginal cuff. All patients were treated with external irradiation using a Cobalt-60 teletherapy machine. The overall actuarial 5-year survival rate was 62% with a 77% 5-year survival rate for group A, a 50% rate for group B and a 75% rate for group C. Further analysis of the prognostic factors revealed that those with regional lymph node involvement of 4 or less had a better chance of survival than those with lymph node involvement of more than 4. Also those with poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma had a lower 5-year survival rate than those with moderately or well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Univariate analysis revealed that hemoglobin values, age, and the time interval from surgery to radiotherapy were not significant prognostic factors.
