Efficacy of multicomponent treatment including surgery was assessed for 85 patients with locally advanced uterine cervical cancer. The first stage of the treatment included neoadjuvant chemotherapy and/or preoperative radiation therapy. The second stage of the treatment consisted of extended radical Wertheims hysterectomy.
