BACKGROUND: Atypical genital bleeding due to gynecologic cancer not only impairs patients' quality of life (QOL), but also becomes a major causative factor of death. We report the clinical usefulness of Mohs' paste for genital bleeding from the uterine cervix or vaginal stump in patients with recurrent gynecologic cancer.
METHOD AND RESULTS: Eight patients with gynecologic cancer were enrolled between January 2010 and March 2012. Mohs' paste was directly applied to the bleeding tumor. In patients with recurrent genital bleeding after the application of Mohs' paste, the technique was repeated. The effect of this procedure continued for 4 days to 1 year. The effect of Mohs' paste continued for 3 months or more in three patients. None of the eight patients have died of genital bleeding.
CONCLUSIONS: The use of Mohs' paste is safe and convenient for massive genital bleeding from the uterine cervix or vaginal stump due to recurrent gynecologic cancer. However, our study does have some limitations including the small number of enrolled subjects and heterogeneous cancer types.
