Do you want to know what is the best cervical cancer treatment? Some referrence of cervical cancer said that treatment of cervical cancer is based on some factors, such as Stages of Cervical Cancer, patient’s desire to pregnant again, and patient’s age.
Choices of cervical cancer treatment are based on cervical cancer stages when diagnosed. In early stage cervical cancer, the cancer can be operated. But, when diagnosed at late stage, it can not be operated.

Cervical cancer in stage 0 also can be treated with excision prosedure like Cold-knife conization, Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure, or hysterectomy.
In stage Ia, cancer still can be operated with some options. If the patient don’t want to have baby anymore, she can choose total hysterectomy. If patient still want to pregnant, she should choose adequate cone biopsy.
In stage Ib – IIa, patients can choose radical hysterectomy, radical pelvic radiotherapy, or radical vaginal trachelectomy. If patients are young and desire to have baby, she could choose radical vaginal trachelectomy.
