Traditionally when cervical cancer is diagnosed during the first trimester of pregnancy, oncological treatment is given priority despite the pregnant state. A 32-year-old primigravida was diagnosed with invasive endocervical adenocarcinoma stage Ib1 at 8 weeks' gestation. As the patient wanted to preserve the pregnancy, an amputation of the anterior cervix and retroperitoneal pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed. Based on favourable prognostic markers, we decided to maintain the pregnancy with careful cytological and histological follow-up. The patient gave birth at term to a healthy boy, and 18 months after the delivery there is no evidence of recurrent disease. In the absence of poor prognostic markers, we decided to adopt a conservative approach for cervical adenocarcinoma in a pregnant patient at 8 weeks' gestation.

Small-cell neuroendocrine cancer (SCNEC) of the uterine cervix is an exceedingly rare, highly aggressive tumor with an extremely poor prognosis. The cellular heterogeneity, origin, and tumorigenesis trajectories of SCNEC of the cervix remain largely unclear. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing and whole-exome sequencing on tumor tissues and adjacent normal cervical tissues from two patients diagnosed with SCNEC of the cervix.

BACKGROUND Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) of the cervix is rare and has high mortality and recurrence rates. The clinical symptoms of cervical NEC, such as abnormal vaginal bleeding and discharge, are similar to those of other cervical cancers. Here, we describe a case involving a 42-year-old woman with cervical NEC accompanied by an isolated large ovarian metastasis.

Background: Chromosomal instability (CIN) has been identified as a factor that increases the susceptibility of tumor cells to kinesin family member 18A (KIF18A) inhibitors. Limited research exists on genes that are associated with sensitization to KIF18A inhibitors (KIF18Ais). Our study aimed to identify a gene linked to heightened sensitivity to KIF18Ais in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC) and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC).
