Abstract:
Cervical cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality in women globally. Neuroendocrine carcinomas are among the rarest and least studied histopathological types of cervical cancers, accounting for 1.4% of all cervical cancers. Neuroendocrine carcinomas of the cervix (NECCs) are aggressive tumors that can be associated with several high-risk features such as early lymphovascular invasion and multiple systemic metastases, at early stages. Here, we present a case series of five patients with NECC who have been diagnosed and managed at a tertiary care hospital in coastal Andhra Pradesh, South India. Using the hospital records, we made a list of patients with NECC who were diagnosed by histopathological findings between 2019 and 2022. Details regarding their demographic variables, presenting complaints, staging, and treatment given were noted down using a pre-defined proforma.
摘要:
宫颈癌是全球女性癌症相关死亡的第二大常见原因。神经内分泌癌是最罕见和最少研究的宫颈癌组织病理学类型之一。占所有宫颈癌的1.4%。子宫颈神经内分泌癌(NECCs)是侵袭性肿瘤,可能与一些高风险特征有关,例如早期淋巴血管浸润和多个系统性转移。在早期阶段。这里,我们提供了一个病例系列,包括5名NECC患者,他们在沿海安得拉邦的一家三级医院被诊断和管理,南印度。利用医院的记录,我们列出了在2019年至2022年期间通过组织病理学检查确诊的NECC患者名单.关于他们的人口统计学变量的细节,提出投诉,分期,和给予的治疗使用预定义的形式记录。
