Methods: 20women with locally advanced squamous cervical cancerreceived consecutive infusion chemotherapy of five days ofcisplatin and adriamycin via the superselective uterineartery. The response to chemotherapy was evaluated bygynecologic examination and ultrasonography 3 weeks after chemotherapy. The changes of apoptotic index (AI), proliferation index (PI) and p53 expression of tumor cellswere detected by immunohistochemical technique.Results: The clinical response rate of locally advancedsquamous cervical cancer to uterine artery infusionchemotherapy was 70%. No change of PI was found 3 weeks after treatment, but AI significantly increased from2.79?.76 to 4.29?.13 (P<0.01), and AI/PI from 5.68?.21 to 9.00?.95 (P<0.05). On the contrary, the expression of p53was significantly decreased (P<0.05). Patients whoresponded to chemotherapy showed higher PI before chemotherapy and significantly increased AI and AI/PIafter chemotherapy than non-responders (P<0.05).Conclusion: Higher PI was an indication for neoadjuvantintraarterial chemotherapy. One more cycle ofchemotherapy should be given to those who have significantly increased AI or AI/PI after chemotherapy, while definite treatment such as surgery or/and radiotherapy should be immediately given to those patients without increased AI or AI/PI.展开更多

Methods： Nineteen locally advanced cervical cancer （LACC） patients from November 2003 to November 2005 were analyzed retrospectively. NAIC was administrated 2 courses every 2 weeks using a combination of 30 mg/m^2 bleomycin and 50 mg/m^2 cisplatin via bilateral femur artedes. The response to NAIC was assessed by pelvic examination and imaging diagnostics and histological analysis. Two weeks after NAIC radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy was performed. Results： Radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy were performed in 18 patients successfully. The mean tumor reduction rate was 73.04%. The overall clinical response rate of NAIC was 84.2% with 2 complete responses and 16 partial responses. Only 1 nonresponder. Six of 7 cases who had parametrial infiltration had a absence after chemotherapy, no significant change was observed in 1 case who followed by radiotherapy. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that tumor volume prior to treatment was determining factor affecting the efficacy of NAIC in LACC. Conclusion： pre-operative NAIC inhibited the growth of LACC, minimized the size, eliminate effectively the pathologic dsk factors in the pelvic cavity, to improve the operability in cervical cancer patients with stage lib or above, considered inoperable.展开更多
