Description
Summary:Tumor stage and lymph node involvement are the most important prognostic factors for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. For cervical cancer, gynecologic oncologists generally apply the criteria of the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics(FIGO). However, in the current FIGO 2018 staging system, stage ⅢC is based only on the anatomical location of metastatic lymph nodes, without considering local tumor factors and other lymphatic status parameters, which limits its prognostic significance to a certain extent. The aim of this article is to summarize the influence of local tumor factors and different lymphatic status parameters on prognosis and treatment options for stage ⅢC cervical cancer.
