Solid tumors following myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) are rare and have no uniform treatment guidelines. The current study presents a rare case of a 47-year-old female diagnosed with cervical cancer (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IIIB) with an eight-year history of MDS. A multidisciplinary treatment discussion was organized and a rigorous treatment plan was developed. With injection of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-11 factor, transfusion of red blood cell suspension and close monitoring of the blood count, the patient was administered radiotherapy, specifically intensity modulated radiation therapy. However, a degree IV bone marrow suppression repeatedly assaulted, leading to interruption of the radiotherapy treatment. Eventually, the total dose received by point A (2 cm above the cervical os marker and 2 cm perpendicular to the uterine axis along the plane of the uterus) was 51 Gy. One month later, a gynecological examination and magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis revealed that the treatment resulted in a complete remission. In conclusion, radiation therapy can still be implemented to obtain satisfactory local control when the hematopoietic function of the bone marrow is weakened due to long-term MDS.
骨髓增生异常综合征(MDS)后继发实体瘤较为罕见,且尚无统一的治疗指南。本研究报告了一例罕见病例,一名47岁女性,诊断为宫颈癌(国际妇产科联盟III B期),有八年的MDS病史。组织了多学科治疗讨论并制定了严格的治疗方案。通过注射粒细胞集落刺激因子和白细胞介素-11因子、输注红细胞悬液以及密切监测血细胞计数,对患者进行了放射治疗,具体为调强放射治疗。然而,患者多次出现IV度骨髓抑制,导致放射治疗中断。最终,A点(宫颈口标记上方2 cm且沿子宫平面垂直于子宫轴2 cm处)接受的总剂量为51 Gy。一个月后,妇科检查和盆腔磁共振成像显示治疗取得了完全缓解。总之,当长期MDS导致骨髓造血功能减弱时,仍可实施放射治疗以获得满意的局部控制效果。
