Cervical Cancer Treatment in Shanghai
Gynecologic oncology in Shanghai combines radical and fertility-sparing surgery with modern chemoradiation. Early-stage patients are often treated with robotic radical hysterectomy or, when eligible, trachelectomy that preserves the uterus for future pregnancy. Advanced cases receive image-guided chemoradiation with brachytherapy.
