Abstract

The article focuses on the threshold for radical hysterectomy in the treatment of low-risk cervical cancer, currently between stages T1a2 and T1b1, and the criteria proposed in the SHAPE trial by Plante et al. that advocate for a simpler hysterectomy approach for tumors up to 2 cm in size combined with limited stromal invasion.
