Zusammenfassung:To explore the predictive value of preoperative serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) level for lymph node metastasis (LNM), particularly, in patients surgically treated for early-stage cervical squamous cell carcinoma.We enrolled 162 patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma stages IB to IIA following the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2009 classification. The patients had previously undergone radical surgery. Correlation of the SCC-Ag level with clinicopathological features and the predictive value of SCC-Ag for LNM were analyzed.High preoperative SCC-Ag level was correlated with FIGO stage (P = .001), tumor diameter >4 cm (P
