Survival benefit of surgery with postoperative radiotherapy in locally advanced cervical adenocarcinoma: a population-based analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The incidence of cervical adenocarcinoma (AC) has experienced a considerable increase in recent decades. Despite this, our understanding of the optimal management of locally advanced cervical AC remains limited. The present study sought to compare the clinical outcomes of radical hysterectomy with postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) and primary radiotherapy (RT) in patients with locally advanced cervical AC using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.

Methods

The data were extracted from the SEER database utilizing the SEER ∗ STAT software (version 8.4.0.1). The study included patients diagnosed with locally advanced cervical AC between 2004 and 2017 with adequate information available for analysis. Patients were assigned to either the Surg
