A study on the temporal patterns, anatomical distribution, and influencing factors of radiation therapy-associated second primary cancers in gynecological malignancies

Key Points

• Second primary cancers are influenced by the timing and location associated with initial cancer treatment.
• Key evidence indicates that existing treatment history can affect secondary cancer risks significantly.
• The analysis examines pathological features post-radiotherapy, aiding in understanding secondary cancer patterns.
• This knowledge may enable improved clinical management and reduce the associated risks of second cancers.
