In regions without access to a gynecologic oncologist, NAC may be a treatment option for early stage CC. NAC in early stage CC allows for tumor size reduction prior to surgery. NAC followed by simple hysterectomy had comparable OS to that of radical hysterectomy. This strategy should be further studied for use in limited resource settings. The majority of deaths from cervical cancer occur in low- and middle- income countries (LMICs). The standard of care for early-stage cervical cancer (FIGO 2018 IA2-IB1) is radical hysterectomy, a procedure performed by trained gynecologic oncologists. However, the lack of gynecologic oncologists in LMICs has required exploration into other methods of treatment for early-stage cervical cancer. A potential course of treatment for early-stage cervical cancer is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by simple hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node sampling, which can be performed by a general gynecologist. We gathered data for 8 women who underwent this method of treatment and found that cause-specific survival was 100% over a 3.5-year median follow-up. These findings support the exploration for this method of treatment for early-stage cervical cancer in LMICs, which would improve access to treatment for these women and hopefully reduce the high burden of cervical cancer related deaths in LMICs.
