The Effect of Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Recurrence and Metastasis Carcinoma of the Cervix

Objective： To explore a new effective regimen for recurrence and distal metasasis carcinoma of the cervix. Methods：Twenty patients with local recurrence and/or distal metastasis carcinoma of the cervix received intraperitoneal chemotherapy were studied. All patients were treated with DDP, 150 mg/m2. The cycle was repeated every 21 days. All patients were evaluable for response. Results： Compared with the other two methods, the tumour shrank obviously after intraperitoned chemotherapy (P<0.001). None of these patients occured serious complication. Conclusion：Our study indicated that intraperitoneal chemotherapy is a effective way for local recurrence and distal metasis carcinoma of the cervix.
