A Multimodality Treatment Approach for the Management of Recurrent Cervical Cancer in an Elderly Female Patient: A Case Report.

Squamous cells in the cervix can develop into a type of cervical cancer. Cervical squamous cells are the cells that line the outside of the cervix. These thin, flat cells have a striking resemblance to fish scales under a microscope. Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are the most common type of cervical cancer. We report the case of a 60-year-old woman with SCC devoid of a family history of cancer or related diseases. Following a biopsy confirming SCC, the patient's contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a somewhat enlarged cervix along with a white discharge per vagina. The patient underwent a Wertheim hysterectomy and was diagnosed with microinvasive SCC, adenomyosis, and negative lymph nodes. Two years after being free from disease, the issue reappeared even with routine follow-ups. The patient underwent six rounds of chemotherapy, followed by chemoradiation and interstitial brachytherapy. The multimodality therapy method applied to an aged female patient experiencing recurrent SCC of the cervix is demonstrated in this case study. It underlines how crucial regular follow-ups and multimodal therapy are to control recurrent cervical cancer.
