Purpose To evaluate the impact of different adjuvant therapy on IB1 and IIA1 stage cervical squamous cell cancer patients with lymphovascular space invasion. It also aimed to analyze the relationship between lymphovascular space invasion and other clinical pathological characteristics on IB1 and IIA1 stage cervical squamous cell cancer patients. Methods This retrospective observational study collected data of FIGO stages IB1 and IIA1 squamous cervical cancer patients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between 2014 and 2018. A correlation analysis between lymphovascular space invasion and other clinical or pathological factors was conducted. Prognosis analysis of patients with lymphovascular space invasion were performed to assess associations between clinical-pathological characteristics and survival. Results A total of 357 women were identified including 110 (30.8%) with lymphovascular space invasion, 247 (69.2%) without lymphovascular space invasion. Both middle 1/3 cervical stromal invasion ( p  = 0.000) and deep 1/3 cervical stromal invasion ( p  = 0.000) were independently associated with lymphovascular space invasion. Among lymphovascular space involved women, tumor differentiation ( P  = 0.001) and postoperative therapy ( P  = 0.036) had a significant influence on disease recurrence. Multivariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis ( P  = 0.017), poorer tumor differentiation ( P  = 0.036) and postoperative chemotherapy alone ( P  = 0.021) can increase the risk of tumor relapse. Conclusion Our study suggested that the presence of deep stromal invasion independently increases the risk of lymphovascular space invasion. Compared with chemotherapy, chemoradiotherapy seems to improve progression-free survival in squamous cervical cancer patients with lymphovascular space invasion.
