Highlights & Basics
- Cervical cancer is a human papillomavirus (HPV)-related malignancy, preventable by HPV vaccination and screening.
- Cervical cancer screening by cytology testing alone, cytology and HPV co-testing, or primary HPV testing may detect preinvasive disease.
- Patients are commonly asymptomatic at presentation, and identified following screening. Patients with advanced disease may present with symptoms such as abnormal vaginal bleeding, postcoital bleeding, vaginal discharge, pelvic or back pain, dyspareunia, or obstructive uropathy.
- Staging using International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics criteria is based on clinical assessment. Where available, imaging (ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography [PET], PET/computed tomography [CT], CT) are used to evaluate the local extent of disease and to screen for metastases, which may guide treatment planning.
- For microinvasive disease, treatment with cone biopsy or extrafascial (simple) hysterectomy is recommended.
