Neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus radical surgery in locally advanced cervical cancer during pregnancy: a case report.
Management of cervicocarcinoma during pregnancy is influenced by gestational age, stage of disease, and patient's desire to maintain her pregnancy. We report a case of a pregnant patient with locally advanced cervicocarcinoma successfully treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by caesarean section and radical surgery.
