Summary

This trial looks at how surgery for early-stage cervical cancer affects patients' quality of life.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with early-stage cervical cancer (stage IA1 with LVSI+, IA2, IB1 with tumor ≤2cm). They must have had a cone biopsy or LEEP showing invasion ≤10mm and no metastasis on scans. Participants need to consent to surgery, have good performance status (0-2), and sign informed consent.
What is being tested?
The study focuses on the impact of surgery on physical function and quality of life in stage I cervical cancer patients. It involves assessments through questionnaires before and after surgical procedures like conization, lymphadenectomy, and other conventional surgeries.
What are the potential side effects?
While not directly related to side effects from medication, surgical interventions may include risks such as infection, bleeding, pain at the surgery site, possible damage to nearby organs or tissues, and lymphedema.
