pubmed:abstractText |
The clinical presentation, surgico-pathologic findings and the outcome are described of seven patients with carcinoma of the endometrium, which developed remote after cervical amputation as a treatment for cervical elongation. In six patients, cervical stenosis prevented early uterine bleeding. Four patients when diagnosed, were in advanced surgical stages of the disease (Stages II and III) and all died thereafter. Three patients with surgical Stage I, had no evidence of disease 33, 96, 151 months, after diagnosis and treatment. The role of cervical stenosis in delayed diagnosis and treatment, and therefore poor prognosis is discussed. When cervical stenosis is anticipated, periodic ultrasonographic evaluation of the endometrium is justified, in order to prevent a delay in making a diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma.
