Can cervical cancer be cured?

By Marta Barranquero Gómez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 01/11/2021

Yes, thanks to advances in medicine and therapeutic options, cervical cancer is curable. In the mildest cases and where the tumor mass is localized, it is possible to perform the removal without damaging the uterus. This is known as conization.

If the cancer becomes invasive, another therapeutic option would be the complete removal of the uterus. In addition, oncological treatments of chemotherapy and radiotherapy also help to treat this disease.
