Abstract

Abstract

Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the survival rate of cervical cancer patients who received treatment at the National Cancer Institute of Thailand from the time of diagnosis until the end of treatment, and to identify the factors that affect the survival rate.

Material and Methods: Medical records of cervical cancer patients from 2017-2020 were reviewed. Only patients who started treatment and finished all treatments in National cancer institute of Thailand were included

Results: 531 patients with cervical cancers were analyzed. Mean age was 51. Most cases were squamous cell carcinoma at 75.4%, followed by adenocarcinoma at 18.9%. The distribution of disease was 24.2%, 34%, 35.4% and 6.4% in stage I, II, II, and IV. The 5-year survival rates are 88% for stage 1, 71% for stage 2, 74% for stage 3, and 40% for stage 4. And we found that only two factors significantly affected the 5 years survival rate were histology and disease stage.

Conclusion: The overall five-year survival rate of cervical cancer patients treated at the National Cancer Institute is favorable and comparable to those in developed countries and other regions in Asia.
