Metastatic Cervical Cancer: A Case That Recalls the Importance of a Multidisciplinary Approach.
Аннотация
Cervical cancer is one of the most common neoplasms in women. Usually, this cancer is only symptomatic in advanced stages and is associated with a poor prognosis. We present the case of a 34-year-old woman with localized cervical cancer at diagnosis treated with surgery in 2011. Six years later, she presented recurrent disease with vaginal, pelvic, and lung metastases. Since then, the patient completed three lines of chemotherapy and a line of immunotherapy, and she was submitted to external radiotherapy and orthopedic surgery. Currently, the patient keeps regular follow-ups and maintains a good performance status. The treatment of recurrent cervical cancer remains a challenge, and the prognosis is poor. This case emphasized the importance of multidisciplinary discussion towards cases of locally advanced or metastatic cervical cancer, which may change this paradigm.
