title: [Parametrial involvement in early stage cervical cancer patients with tumor less 2 cm: The myth or reality?].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim is review of studies exploring the relationship of parametrial involvement with other tumor-related factors (lymphovascular space invasion, depth of stromal invasion, status of sentinel lymph node) in early stage cervical cancer patients with tumor less than 2 cm.
  
  
  METHODS
  Review.
  
  
  METHODS
  Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University Hospital Ostrava.
  
  
  METHODS
  Searching of the literature in database PubMed by combination of the key words: early stage, cervical cancer, parametrial involvement, parametrectomy.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Based on literature review, the metastatic parametrial involvement in early-stage cervical cancer patients with tumor less than 2 cm and with other tumor-related factors is very rare. Before omitting of parametrectomy in these low-risk patients, these encouraging data must be confirmed in the prospective multicentric trials.
