Abstract:
Standard treatment of locally advanced cervical carcinoma is actually represented by concomitant chemoradiotherapy followed by brachytherapy since several randomised study results in 1999. Surgical resection after concomitant chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical carcinoma is discussed without evidence of benefice on survival and because morbidity. The aim of this study is to discuss surgery after chemoradiotherapy in terms of rate of morbidity and residual tumor, rate of pelvic disease control, overall survival and disease-free survival.
