Abstract

According to the results of India Cancer incidence estimates for 2022 according to National Cancer Registry Programme published by Indian J Med Res. 2022 Oct-Nov, cervical cancer ranks as the second most common cancer among females affecting approximately 123907 individuals which account for 18.3% of all female cancer patients(1).  

Treatment options for cervical cancer depend on the stage, classified according to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) system(2). For early-stage disease (FIGO stage IA, IB1, and IIA), radical surgery, including trachelectomy or radical hysterectomy, is the preferred choice. Conversely, primary radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy is recommended for patients with bulky tumors (FIGO stage IB2/IIA2) or locally advanced disease (FIGO stage IIB or greater).
