Recurrent Cervical Cancer with Intestinal Perforation That Was Related to Bevacizumab after Long-term NSAIDs Administration and Was Treated with Laparoscopy-assisted Anastomosis.

: Bevacizumab is an effective drug for recurrent/advanced cervical cancer. A 59-year-old patient diagnosed with FIGO stage I B2 squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix at our hospital was treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy as initial treatment. The outcome was judged as close to CR. Local recurrence in the irradiation field and paraaortic lymph node metastasis were noted 2 months after completion of this treatment. Chemotherapy of bevacizumab combined with paclitaxel plus carboplatin (TC) was initiated for recurrent cervical cancer. At 17 days after the 4th cycle, abdominal pain suddenly developed, and a close examination detected free air on abdominal CT, based on which intestinal perforation was diagnosed. Laparoscopic surgery performed to investigate the intraabdominal cavity showed that the small intestine was perforated at 2 sites. These were treated with laparoscopy-assisted partial resection of the small intestine and functional end-to-end anastomosis. Drug therapy for the recurrent cervical cancer was considered, but the primary disease rapidly aggravated and the patient died of the primary disease 11 months after completion of the initial treatment.
