[Preservation of function and radicality in radical operation of cancer of the uterine cervix].
Radical hysterectomy is performed in operation for cervical cancers as the treatment of first choice and good results here been obtained. However, postoperative disturbances remain in almost all patients because of this operation, since its range of resection is very wide. To ensure a sound life of patients in society after the operation review of treatment methods is demanded. There are two kinds of approaches from such a standpoint for cervical cancers. The one is recognition of a cervical cancer at such a period as a cure rate of nearly 100% is obtained without radical operation (even if the range of resection is reduced), establishment of diagnostic method such cancers and study of an appropriate operation technique to be performed at this time. The other is investigation of a technique in radical hysterectomy in which physiological functions are preserved without changes of the radicality of cure. At present examination from these two aspects has shown satisfactory results, so that I will state these results here.
