Will cervical cancer recur after complete hysterectomy?

Cervical cancer is a disease with a relatively high mortality rate. This disease will affect the patient's life span. Patients with cervical cancer are infertile and need to receive timely treatment. Cervical cancer can be cured in the early stages, but it will spread in the middle and late stages, and the difficulty of treatment will increase. Therefore, cervical cancer needs to be treated through surgery and chemotherapy, and the total removal method is generally chosen.

No matter what stage cervical cancer is in or what treatment method is chosen, there is a possibility of recurrence. Even if it is completely removed, the possibility of recurrence cannot be ruled out.

For patients with cervical cancer who undergo radical resection surgery, if there are no problems 5 years after the surgery, there will generally be no recurrence. Although surgical treatment is relatively thorough, even if the cancer cells have not metastasized, cancer may recur in the pelvis. Therefore, patients should pay attention to regular check-ups after surgery. It is recommended to check 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. One year after surgery, check every 6 months, so that you can know whether there is any recurrence in time.

Postoperative treatment for cervical cancer is also critical and plays an important role in preventing recurrence and metastasis. Currently, the main postoperative treatments for cervical cancer are radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. Currently, the commonly used postoperative treatments for cervical cancer in clinical practice mainly include radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Of course, the specific treatment of cervical cancer after surgery should be based on the patient's specific situation. Scientific and reasonable treatment can reduce the chance of complications and recurrence, and can achieve faster recovery.

It is recommended that if the physical condition permits after cervical cancer surgery, effective systemic chemotherapy or adjuvant radiotherapy can be chosen to consolidate the therapeutic effect, kill residual cancer cells after surgery, and better control and prevent recurrence. It can be combined with Chinese medicine for treatment, which can not only improve the body's immunity, but also reduce the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy and enhance the effect.

From the above introduction, it can be seen that the harm of cervical cancer is very great. Even if a complete resection surgery is performed, recurrence is possible. Therefore, patients must pay attention to care after surgery, regular check-ups, and at the same time cooperate with some radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatments to better consolidate the therapeutic effect, prevent recurrence and metastasis of cervical cancer, and minimize the harm.
