Abstract:
Background and purpose:It is rare that gastric and colorectal cancer metastasize to the uterine cervix.The study aimed to explore the treatment,prognosis,and the clinical features of metastatases of uterine cervix from gastric and colorectal cancer.Methods:22 patients with metastatic carcinoma to the uterine cervix from gastric and colorectal cancer were treated from 1994 to 2007 in Cancer Hospital of Zhejiang Province.The clinical pathologic parameters and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively.Results:The ages of patients ranged from 29 to 74 years old with mean of 46.7 years.The main symptom of patients was vaginal bleeding(54.5%).The primary tumor was gastric cancer in 10 cases and colorectal cancer in 12 cases.6 cases received operation alone,3 cases received radiotherapy alone,1 case received chemotherapy alone,9 cases were treated by the combination of chemotherapy,operation or radiotherapy,3 cases were not treated.According to clinical pathologic parameters,if the primary tumor was gastric cancer,it metastasesed to endometrium of uterine body;if the primary tumor was colorectal cancer,the serosa and myometrial of uterine body were invaded.In 22 cases,3 cases were still under treatment,with one lost follow-up,and the others died,the mean overall survival was 14.6 months.The mean overall survival were 11.2 months for gastric cancer and 17.9 months for colorectal cancer respectively.The mean overall survival of signet-ring cell carcinoma,mucinous adenocarcinoma and adenocarcinoma(G1-G3)were 10 months,13 months,and 18.1 months respectively.The mean overall survival for the patients treated by either radiotherapy,operation or the combination were 10.7 months,13.2 months and 17.7 months respectively.The mean overall survival for 4 patients treated by radical operation and 5 patients treated by tumor cell reduction-extinction technique were 22.3 months and 7.8 months respectively.Conclusion:The mean overall survival for the patients with metastases of uterine cervix from gastric cancer was worse than that from colorectal cancer.The patients with signet-ring cell carcinoma had the shortest mean overall survival,followed by mucinous adenocarcinoma.The primary lesion of tumor,histological types and treatment modality may be the main factors that affect the prognosis.The strategy of the treatment for the disease should be multidisciplinary therapy including surgery,radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
