A Study on the Related Factors of Pelvic Lymph Nodes Metastasis in Patients with Cervical Carcinoma of Stage I and II

Objective To research the relative factors of pelvic lymph nodes metastasis in patients with cervical carcinoma of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ.Methods A retrospective study of the cases in combination with the related clinico-pathologic data of 576 patients with cervical carcinoma of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ undergoing radical surgery was carried out,and the correlation between the clinico-pathologic findings and the situation of pelvic lymph nodes metastasis was statistically analyzed.Results The pelvic lymph nodes metastasis rate was 17.9%,with 10.1% in stage Ⅰ,and 39.7% in stage Ⅱ.Age,clinical stage,pathological grade,growth type,tumor size and depth of myometrial invation were closely related to the metastasis of pelvic lymph nodes,and no significant difference was found in pathological category.Conclusion The more young age,lated stage,worse in pathological grade,endophytic type,greater tumor diameter and deeper myometrial invation mean,the higher pelvic lymph node metastasis rate.
