“…Tumor size, T stage, and histologic type were independent predictors of postoperative distant metastasis in cervical cancer patients. A previous study indicated that a tumor size larger than 4 cm increased the risk of recurrence in cervical cancer patients [ 37 ]. Our results indicated that tumor size ≥4 cm was a predictor of increased distant metastasis in cervical cancer patients after surgery.…”

“…Tumour size is strongly correlated with recurrence and survival in cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy (Delgado et al , 1989; Bansal et al , 2009; Turan et al , 2010; Garg et al , 2011; Chang et al , 2012) (Tables 3, 4). In general, 2CM is correlated with an increased risk of recurrence (Delgado et al , 1989; Chang et al , 2012), but our study and others indicate that 3CM is better correlated with recurrence (Table 5).…”

“…LVSI involvement [8,9], DOI > 1/2 [8,10], parametrial microinvasion [1,8,[11][12][13], LN metastasis [8,10,12], and vaginal margin involvement [12] are significantly more frequent in stage IB1 CC patients with a tumor diameter ≥ 2 cm than in those with smaller tumors. Although parametrial invasion [10] and positive vaginal margin involvement [5,8,10] were more frequently associated with tumors ≥ 2 cm in diameter, some studies indicated no significant differences according to tumor size. Studies evaluating microinvasion observed during radical resection of the parametrium, which is the primary aim of radical surgery, showed that tumor size was an independent predictor of parametrial spread according to regression analyses [1,3,14].…”
