| Sumario: | Objective: To report survival outcomes in patients with locally recurrent gynecologic cancers managed with curative-intent radical extirpation, perioperative external beam radiotherapy, and intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT). Patients and Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis of 44 patients with locally recurrent gynecologic cancer treated at a single tertiary-care center (Mayo Clinic in Arizona) over a 15-year period (January 1, 2004, to July 31, 2019). This cohort included patients with uterine (n=21, 47.7%), ovarian (n=3, 6.8%), cervical (n=11, 25.0%), vaginal (n=2, 4.5%), vulvar (n=1, 2.3%), and unknown primary (n=6, 13.6%) cancer. Curative-intent radical extirpation included pelvic exenteration (n=13, 29.5%), laterally extended endopelvic resection (n=22, 50.0%), excision of para-aortic lymph node metastasis (n=8, 18.2%), and radical vaginectomy (n=1, 2.3%). Of the 44 patients in our cohort, 37 (84.1%) received IORT and 7 (15.9%) had intended to receive IORT but did not receive it. Results: The median follow-up for the 44 patients was 12 months (range, 1 to 161 months). For patients who received IORT, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 13 and 21 months, respectively, and the 3-year cumulative incidence of central, locoregional, and distant recurrence was 27.0% (10 of 37), 40.5% (15 of 37), and 37.8% (14 of 37), respectively. Surgical margins were classified as negative (28 of 44, 63.6%), microscopic (11 of 44, 25.0%), or macroscopic (5 of 44, 11.4%). Negative, microscopic, and macroscopic surgical margins resulted in 3-year PFS of 51.8%, 20.5%, and 0%, respectively (P=.01) and 3-year OS of 62.9%, 20.0%, and 0%, respectively (P=.035). Progression-free survival (P=.69) and OS (P=.88) were not different between patients with negative surgical margins who received (n=21) and did not receive (n=7) IORT. Ten of 37 patients (27.0%) had development of grade 3 or higher toxicities, with 1 death due to sepsis. Conclusion: Complete tumor resection at the time of curative-intent radical extirpation achieved higher rates of PFS and OS regardless of IORT administration. |
