Reducing radicality in fertility-sparing surgery is associated with improved in vitro fertilization outcome in early-stage cervical cancer: A national retrospective study

CONCLUSION: This is the largest study to evaluate IVF outcomes in young cervical cancer survivors who have undergone FSS. The findings suggest that less radical procedures are associated with significantly better IVF outcomes. These results emphasize the importance of considering oncological safety and reproductive outcomes together when choosing FSS for early-stage cervical cancer patients. It also highlights the reproductive benefits of performing less radical surgery.PMID:38569327 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2024.03.024
