| Abstract | Background Radiotherapy is one of the main treatments for cervical cancer. Long-term complications of radiation exposure include the emergence of secondary tumors. This is a retrospective study based on an American population. We discuss the optimal treatment modality for patients with radiation-induced secondary uterine malignancy based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. Methods The study included patients with a definitive pathological diagnosis of cervical cancer who were diagnosed with a uterine malignant tumor ≥ 1 year later. Patients in whom cervical cancer was not the first tumor or patients with missing data were excluded. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using the COX regression model to screen independent prognostic factors affecting overall survival. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were analyzed using the R software package. Results We screened 142 patients with a secondary uterine malignancy after cervical cancer treatment, 115 patients with a secondary uterine malignancy after radiotherapy, and 27 patients with a secondary uterine malignancy who did not receive radiotherapy. The average latency period for developing a secondary tumor was 8 years, and 57.04% of the patients had a second tumor at ≥ 60 years of age. In patients with a secondary uterine malignancy after radiotherapy, surgery improved the prognosis [hazard ratio (HR), 0.374; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.229–0.612], whereas radiotherapy and chemotherapy did not reduce the risk of death. In the subgroup analysis, the surgery plus chemotherapy group had a significantly better survival prognosis than the other groups (HR, 0.251; 95% CI, 0.122–0.515). Conclusions The results suggest that the treatment modality in patients with secondary uterine malignancy after radiotherapy for cervical cancer has a significant impact on survival. The survival outcomes of patients receiving surgery combined with chemotherapy are superior to those of patients receiving other treatments. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
