ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To explore clinicopathological characteristics and their prognostic value among young patients with cervical cancer (who are aged ≤25 years old).

Methods

They were then stratified by age as young women (≤25 years old) and old women (26-35 years old) and analyzed for clinicopathology characteristics and treatment modalities. Prognosis was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier survival curve, as well as hazard ratios using Cox regression modeling. The nomogram was developed based on Cox hazards regression model.

Results

Compared to 26-35 years old women, patients aged ≤25 years tended to be white ethnicity, unmarried, had earlier stage of disease.
