Class II radical hysterectomy for stage I–IIA cervix cancer: Prognostic factors associated to recurrence and survival in a northeast Brazil experience

Abstract

Class II radical hysterectomy has provided appropriated disease control of cervix cancer with low morbidity in our experience. Furthermore, tumor size and compromised vaginal margin were significantly associated to recurrence. These factors and lymph node metastasis were also associated to lower 5-year survival according to our analysis.
