Abstract

To improve our understanding of cervical adenocarcinoma (AD) and evaluate the clinical and pathological variables affecting its prognosis, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 455 patients with cervical cancer [International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage I/II; 91 cases with AD and 364 with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)] who underwent surgery at our hospital between January, 1995 and August, 2012 and compared the characteristics and prognoses between AD and SCC cases, including age, clinical stage, histological type, lymph node metastasis, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI), cervical stromal invasion, parametrial invasion, vaginal invasion, corpus invasion, ovarian metastasis and tumor diameter. We used Cox regression analysis to determine independent prognostic factors. AD was found to have a significantly poorer prognosis in all the patients (P=0.001), stage I patients (P=0.001) and stage IB patients (P<0.05). The prognosis did not differ in patients who did not require postoperative treatment; however, patients who received postoperative treatment exhibited a significantly poorer prognosis (P<0.05). Patients with AD who received postoperative irradiation alone had a significantly poorer prognosis (P<0.05). The multivariate analysis identified LVSI (P=0.008), stromal invasion (P=0.024) and ovarian metastasis (P=0.032) as independent predictors of shorter survival. AD was associated with a worse prognosis compared to SCC in patients with stage IB disease, particularly in those who required postoperative treatment. Such patients may benefit from individualized postoperative treatments that differ from those applied for SCC.
