Early stage vaginal carcinomas are typically treated with radical surgical procedures or radiation therapy. Both modalities impair the reproductive ability of the patients. We hereby report a case of menstrual function preservation in a 24-year-old patient with an early-stage primary vaginal clear cell carcinoma. We treated the patient with intravaginal brachytherapy after appropriate laparoscopic surgical staging and separate transposition of the ovaries and tubes. The patient is now 6 years without any evidence of disease. She reports minor. complaints during sexual intercourse, while her menstruation and hormonic profile are normal.
早期阴道癌通常采用根治性手术或放射治疗。这两种治疗方式都会损害患者的生殖能力。我们在此报告一例24岁早期原发性阴道透明细胞癌患者月经功能保留的病例。在进行适当的腹腔镜手术分期以及卵巢和输卵管分别移位后,我们对该患者进行了阴道近距离放射治疗。该患者目前已无病生存6年。她报告在性交时有轻微不适,而月经和激素水平正常。
