Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Cervical cancer treatment often involves radical hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy.
  • Minimally invasive surgical approaches are increasingly explored for gynecologic malignancies.

Observation:

  • This case report describes a laparoscopic radical hysterectomy combined with pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy.
  • The procedure was performed for a patient diagnosed with stage IA2 carcinoma of the cervix.

Findings:

  • This represents the first documented instance of a laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with concurrent laparoscopic paraaortic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer.
  • The combined laparoscopic approach was successfully utilized for staging and treatment.

Implications:

  • This technique may offer a minimally invasive alternative for select patients with early-stage cervical cancer.
  • Further research is warranted to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and oncologic outcomes of this laparoscopic approach.
