Abstract | Background: Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality among women globally, particularly in low- and middle-income like India. It arises from persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types. Early detection through screening programs and the introduction of HPV vaccination have significantly improved prevention. However, once diagnosed, management strategies vary based on the stage of the disease, histological type, patient’s general condition, and availability of treatment modalities. Method: A literature review of cervical cancer cases was conducted, categorizing patients based on disease stage and treatment modality such as surgical, radiotherapy, chemo radiation, or palliative care. Clinical parameters including tumor stage, lymph node involvement, histopathological findings, and patient outcomes were reviewed to evaluate the effectiveness of various management approaches. Result: Early-stage cervical cancer was effectively managed with surgery, showing favorable survival rates. Advanced stages required concurrent chemo radiotherapy, with moderate outcomes, although delays in treatment initiation negatively impacted prognosis. Patients receiving palliative care had poor outcomes, often presenting with metastasis or severe comorbidities. Early diagnosis and access to comprehensive treatment significantly improved survival and quality of life. Conclusion: Effective management of cervical cancer depends on early detection and appropriate staging. Multimodal approaches, particularly chemo radiotherapy, are essential for advanced cases, while surgery remains the cornerstone for early-stage disease. Strengthening screening programs, HPV vaccination, and timely referral systems are crucial for reducing the burden of cervical cancer. |
