Adenocarcinoma of the cervix--are there arguments for a different treatment policy?
1Department of Gynaecological Oncology, Royal Women's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia.
Abstract:
Adenocarcinoma of the cervix may well be aetiologically, epidemiologically, and clinically different to its squamous counterpart. Overall prognosis is poorer which may relate to an increased radiation resistance or to a propensity to spread intraperitoneally. The role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy is even less well defined than in squamous cancers. Future studies in carcinoma of the cervix should either be confined to one histological type, or should at least be stratified, based on whether the disease is squamous or non-squamous.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
