Abstract
Journal of Cancer Metastasis and Treatment is an open access journal, focusing on basic and clinical studies related to cancer cell, cell biology, oncology, radiation therapy and radiology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, surgery, hematology, neuro-oncology, etc.
Highlights
The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) revised the staging system of cervical cancer in 2018, integrating modern imaging techniques (e.g., MRI) into diagnostics and allowing for newer treatment options[1]
An operation founded on inconsistent tumor biological and anatomical conceptions is rather unlikely to bring forth optimal treatment results. This is verified by the high probability of locoregional relapses in early cervical cancer associated with histopathological risk factors, such as lymph node metastases and histopathological T2b stage demanding for postoperative adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy[5]
We demonstrated with 99 successive patients being diagnosed with unselected FIGO IIB carcinomas that R0 resection was achieved with either total mesometrial resection (TMMR) (n = 49) or extended mesometrial resection (EMMR) (n = 50) including therapeutic lymph node dissection according to the cancer field algorithm for regional tumor control
Summary
The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) revised the staging system of cervical cancer in 2018, integrating modern imaging techniques (e.g., MRI) into diagnostics and allowing for newer treatment options[1]. Cancer field surgery and therapeutic lymph node dissection are the therapeutical translation of the ontogenetic cancer field model for epithelial malignant tumors, i.e., carcinomas.
