Abstract:Cervical cancer is a common malignant gynecological tumor and still poses a threat to women's health. Comprehensive treatment such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is currently the main treatment model. More than 30% patients with cervical cancer are locally advanced (FIGO stage IIB-IVA), and treatment for the patients in this phase is mainly concurrent radiochemotherapy. Although, short-term effect for locally advanced cervical cancer is comparatively ideal, the long-term follow-up shows tendency of relapse and poor survival. The current FIGO staging can initially provide us with the guidance of treatment and judgement for prognosis, but other factors such as the patient's own condition, tumor size, lymphadenopathy status and treatment methods have influences on the prognosis too. Comprehensive assessments of prognosis and screening out high-risk factors are of great significance. This article discusses the clinical research progress on the prognostic factors of locally advanced cervical cancer.
