First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 267 women with early-stage cervical cancer to compare two surgical approaches: removing all pelvic lymph nodes versus removing only the sentinel (first) lymph node. The goal was to see which method causes fewer complications within 6 months after surgery. Researchers also tracked quality of life, costs, and cancer recurrence to find the best approach.
