About this Treatment: Surgery for Cervical Cancer
Types of Surgery for Cervical Cancer
The type of surgery recommended depends on the stage and extent of cervical cancer:
- Removing the entire uterus and the cervix with the body tissues around it
This surgery is called a radical hysterectomy. This makes sure the cancer does not spread beyond the uterus and the cervix.
- Removing the cervix with the body tissues around it, preserving the uterus and ovaries
This surgery is called a radical trachelectomy. This procedure can preserve fertility in women who are still interested in the potential to have children later.
