[Organ-preserving operations on patients with microinvasive carcinoma of the cervix uteri]

Organ-preserving operative treatment was performed on 29 women with microinvasive operative microinvasive carcinoma of the uterine cervix at lal clinical stages. After conization of the uterine cervix the patients were observed actively by cytology, colposcopy and, when it was necessary, a colposcopic-directed biopsy was made during a period of 3-98 as there was no relapse of the disease in neither case. The authors think that it is possible to perform conization in young women with minimal stromal invasion up to 1000 microns as their reproductive function is preserved without any risk for occurrence of a relapse.
