In young patients affected by early invasive cervical carcinoma, radical trachelectomy does not appear to increase the rate of recurrence. It carries a relative risk of infertility and late miscarriage but makes it possible for some patients to become pregnant and give birth to normal newborns. Thus, it seems reasonable to offer this procedure in selected cases, provided that each patient is fully informed and the surgeon properly trained.
Dargent et al. (Sat,) studied this question.
