Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the increasing rates of cervical cancer among women aged 35 and younger over the past 30 years.
- The analysis involved 6257 patients and revealed that the incidence of cervical cancer in this age group rose from 2.8% to 15.7%, with adenocarcinoma cases also increasing significantly.
- The research highlights the importance of regular screening for cervical cancer in younger women, as a larger percentage of diagnosed cases in this group were found through routine cytological screening compared to older women.
Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to determine the outcome of class II radical hysterectomy for the treatment of a subset of patients with early cervical cancer.
Method: From September 1995 to September 2003, a total of 480 patients whose conditions were diagnosed with squamous carcinoma of the cervix with a tumor size of no greater than 2 cm and a pathological grade 1 to 2 was enrolled in a cohort study to compare class II and class III radical hysterectomy, with 240 patients in each group. Disease-free survival, overall survival, pattern of recurrences, and morbidity were the end points of observation for this study.
