Purpose or Objective

To determine outcomes of patients with locally advanced

cervical cancer who presented with deranged renal

functions necessitating

urinary diversion

with Percutaneous Nephrostomy (PCN) before and during

course of pelvic radiation

Material and Methods

The retrospective audit was approved by institutional

review board. The hospital database from January 2010-

June 2015 was reviewed to identify patients with locally

advanced cervical cancer and deranged serum creatinine

at baseline. Patients wherein PCN was advised at baseline

or during treatment were selected for this audit.

Pretreatment patient, tumour and treatment related

factors that impacted choice of treatment and overall

survival in patients undergoing PCN were analysed using

univariate and multivariate analysis

Results

Over a 5 year study period, 128 patients with primary or

recurrent cervical cancer underwent PCN. Of these 56

(44%) underwent PCN before and during treatment and 60

patients (44%) received PCN after completion of primary

treatment within the setting of local or distant recurrence

that necessitated systemic chemotherapy. Overall 12

(9%) patients did not receive any treatment after PCN due

to anticipated poor tolerance. Median serum creatinine

before and after a week of PCN was 3.8mg/dl (0.4-7.4 )

and 1.6 mg/dl ( 0.6-1.7 ). Median hospital stay was 13

days(4-67). Overall 62.5% patients developed procedure

related urinary infection following PCN and 8% patients

died

secondary

to

infective

complications.

Of the 56 patients that received PCN before treatment,

54 received either radical (n=31) or palliative radiation

(n=23). Of those planned for radical radiation, 34 were

stage III, 15 were Stage IV with median tumour size of 4.5

cms. Only 16/54 patients could complete planned

concurrent chemoradiation (29%). Median survival for the

cohort undergoing PCN prior to treatment was 205 days

(7-369) For 16 patients that completed radical

chemoradiation the median survival was 254 days (107-

380) and 18/54 for those receiving palliative radiation was

146 days (41 - 146). On univariate analysis restricted to

cohort of patients receiving radiation Karnofsky

performance score <70 at time of PCN (p=0.005), Serum

creatinine >3mg/dl (p=0.004), post procedure infection

(p=0.002) were factors for poor outcomes of procedure.

Conclusion

Conclusion - There is significant fall in serum creatinine

and improvement in renal function occurs after

percutaneous nephrostomy. Yet the median survival was

dismal and patients had considerable procedure related

morbidity further adding to the duration of hospital stay.

Careful selection of patients to undergo percutaneous

nephrostomy is important for the success of the procedure

Purpose or Objective

To analyze the efficacy and tolerability of intensity

modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) simultaneous

integrated boost (SIB) associated to cisplatin based

chemotherapy. in preoperative setting of patients with

locally advanced cervical cancer

Material and Methods

From September 2014 to December 2015, we analyzed

patients with locally advanced cervical cancer undergone

to neoadjuvant intensity-modulated extended-field

chemoradiation plus simultaneous integrated boost. A

radiation dose of 39.6 Gy, 1.8 Gy/fraction, was delivered

to the pelvis plus a radiation dose to the primary tumor

delivered with SIB-IMRT strategy for a total of 50.6 Gy,

2.3 Gy/fraction in 25 fractions. Cisplatin based

chemotherapy was delivered associated to radiotherapy.

Radical hysterectomy plus pelvic with or without aortic

lymphadenectomy was performed within 6 to 8 weeks

from CRT. Statistical analysis was performed using Systat

program.

Results

29 patients (median age: 52 years; The International

Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IB2:

1, IIB: 19, IIIA: 1; IIIB: 5; IVA: 3) were analyzed. The

treatment was well tolerated with a good compliance: no

patients had grade 3/4 gastrointestinal or genitourinary

toxicity; grade 3 leukopenia and neutropenia were

reported in only 1 case (stage FIGO IVA) without

interruption of the treatment. pCR was documented in 15

cases (51%) and 4 patients (13%) had a microscopic

residual disease (persistent tumor foci of 3 mm maximum

dimension). At median follow-up of 12.5 months (range:

7-19 months), the 1-year local control was 95%, whereas

the 1-year disease-free and overall survival rates were 95%

and 100%, respectively.

Conclusion

The treatment was globally well tolerated with a good

compliance. Results in terms of efficacy were comparable

with literature data. Local control and overall survival will

be further evaluated with a longer follow-up.

Oncology Dpt., Barcelona, Spain

Purpose or Objective

To investigate the hematological parameters for anemia

in relation to survival in endometrial carcinoma (EC) and

to audit hemoglobin (Hb) monitoring before, during and

after radiotherapy.

Material and Methods

We retrospectively evaluated 233 patients (p) out of a

total cohort of 248p diagnosed with EC and treated with

radiotherapy (RDT) in our center between January 2011

and December 2015. We analyzed the presence of anemia

defined as Hb<12g/dL in four specific intervals: pre-

treatment (Hb), before RDT(Hb2), during (Hb3) y after

RDT (Hb4). We estimated how many patients with basal

Hb<12g/dL were monitored for anemia afterwards and if

pretreatment Hb level has prognostic value for Overall

Survival (OS). Statistics: Ch2, Kaplan-Meier test, T-test.

Results

Age at diagnosis (years): mean 64.9 (range 36-90). All

patients underwent surgery before RDT, with pelvic

lymphadenectomy in 187p (80.3%). Histology:

endometrioid 172p(73.8%), non-endometrioid 61p(26.2%).

FIGO stage (2009): IA-60p (27.8%), IB-92p(39.5%), II-

32p(13.7%), IIIA-9p(3.9%), IIIB-0, IIIC1-20(8.6%), IIIC2-

8(3.4%), IVA-9(3.9%), IVB-3(1.3%). Grade: I-50p(21.5%), II-

91p(39%), III-88p(37.8%). Majority of patients was treated

with combination of EBRT+BT (mean dose 41.2 Gy, range

5-75). Mean follow-up (months): mean 32. Progression was

observed in 40p (17.2%): only 1p developed pelvic node

recurrence, 39p developed distant recurrence (4p with

vaginal progression, 3p with regional progression and 1p

with both vaginal and regional progression, remaining 31p

presented exclusively distant progression). Mortality: 31p

(13.3%), including 28p (12%) cancer-deaths and 3deaths

(1.3%) not related with EC. Remaining 202p were alive
