Incidence and risk factors associated with the development of metastatic spinal cord compression due to bone metastasis in women with cervical cancer.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and factors associated with the development of metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) after cervical cancer (CC).

Methods: This retrospective cohort of 3551 women with CC who underwent treatment at the Brazilian National Cancer Institute were included in the study. Clinical and sociodemographic variables were obtained from the Hospital Cancer Registry and from hospital records.

Prognostic factors for brain metastasis in women presenting cervical cancer.

Purpose: Although rare, brain metastases (BM) from cervical cancer (CC) are highly lethal. Adequate patient selection for specific treatments can improve survival rates in patients afflicted by this condition. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of CC patients who developed BM and overall survival-associated factors.

Incidence and risk factors for the development of cerebral metastasis in cervical cancer patients.

Objective: Cerebral metastasis (CM) in cervical cancer (CC) cases, although rare, results in high lethality rates. The present study aimed to assess CM incidence in a Brazilian reference CC center and evaluate the risk factors for CM development. Retrospective observational study of patients diagnosed with CC between 2010 and 2017.
