For this study, we included formalin fixed paraffin embedded cervical cancer samples of 238 patients (without distant metastasis) who underwent surgery in the years 1993–2002 at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Ludwig Maximilian University Munich, Germany (see Table 1 for a description of the cohort characteristics). This happened without any preselection. Only patients with tumors corresponding to CSCC and CAC histological subtypes participated in the cohort. The clinical and follow-up data, such as patient age, overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), lymph node status, tumor size, presence of metastases, histopathological grading, tumor subtype and FIGO 2009 (Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d’Obstétrique) stage, were retrieved from the Munich Cancer Registry.

Baseline characteristics for CSCC and CAC samples.
