    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the preoperative value of serum SCC-Ag in predicting the stromal invasion of cervical squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed 78 patients with early cervical squamous cell carcinoma who underwent surgery as initial treatment at the Senior Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the Seventh Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2018 to September 2022 was implemented. The clinicopathological characteristics were statistically compared. The ROC curve was drawn to determine the optimal critical level of  preoperative serum SCC-Ag value for predicting cervical stromal invasion. RESULTS: The depth of myometrial invasion was not related to the age of diagnosis and HPV infection (p > 0.05), while it was related to tumor size, staging, tissue differentiation, LVSI, lymph node metastasis (LNM) and preoperative serum SCC-Ag value (p < 0.05).The area under the curve (AUC) of serum SCC-Ag value was 0.894 (p = 0.000, 95% CI 0.824-0.964), and preoperative serum SCC-Ag value 1.65 ng/ml was the best cutoff for predicting cervical stromal invasion in cervical squamous cell carcinoma. The sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis were 92.3% and 78.8%, respectively. CONCLUSION: If the preoperative serum SCC-Ag leval more than 1.65 ng/ml in patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma, the risk of cervical stromal invasion will increase, which can provide a reference for clinical treatment.
