Abstract

Cervical cancer can affect women in their reproductive age. At stage IB1 fertility function can be preserved by radical trachelectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy. This is the operation of the uterine cervix removal and the surrounding paracervical tissue (parametrii) in combination with pelvic lymph nodes, while the uterine corpus is put in place. We represent a case report of a 32-year old nulipara with cervical cancer stage 1B1. The patient, who was treated with radical fertility saving operation, later became pregnant and gave birth.
