Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of somatic gene mutations in different stages of cervical carcinogenesis placing special emphasis on micro-invasive pT1a cervical squamous cell cancers (SCC). METHODS: Micro-dissected samples of 32 micro-invasive pT1a and 55 ≥ pT1b SCC were evaluated by next generation sequencing of 50 cancer genes (cancer hot spot panel). RESULTS: At primary diagnosis, 8/32 (25%) pT1a SCC,...
