What is Cervical Cancer?
Cancer that forms in tissues of the cervix
(the organ connecting the uterus and
vagina). It is usually a slow- growing cancer
that may not have symptoms but can be found
with regular Pap tests (a procedure in which
cells are scraped from the cervix and looked
at under a microscope). Cervical cancer
is almost always caused by human
papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Most cervical
cancers (80 to 90 percent) are Squamous cell
cancers. Adenocarcinoma is the second most common
type of cervical cancer, accounting for the
remaining 10 to 20 percent of cases.
Adenocarcinoma develops from the glands that
produce mucus in the endocervix. While less
common than squamous cell carcinoma, the
incidence of adenocarcinoma is on the rise,
particularly in younger women. Most cervical
cancer is caused by a virus called human
papillomavirus, or HPV. You can get HPV by having
sexual contact with someone who has it. There are
many types of the HPV virus. Not all types of HPV
cause cervical cancer. Some of them cause genital
warts, but other types may not cause any
symptoms.

Diagnosis of Cervical Cancer
Pap Test. Cervical Cone Biopsy
(Conization). Using a scalpel, Gyneconcologist
removes a cone-shaped piece of cervical tissue
where the abnormality is found. A Pap test can
detect abnormal cells in the cervix, including
cancer cells and cells that show changes that
increase the risk of cervical cancer. HPV DNA
Test. Your doctor may also use a lab test called
the HPV DNA test to determine whether you are
infected with any of the types of HPV that are
most likely to lead to cervical cancer. Like the
Pap test, the HPV DNA test involves collecting
cells from the cervix for lab testing.  If you
experience signs and symptoms of cervical cancer
or if a Pap test has revealed cancerous cells,
you may undergo further tests to diagnose your
cancer. To make a diagnosis, your
doctor may Examine your Cervix. During an
exam called colposcopy, your doctor uses a
special microscope to examine your cervix for
abnormal cells. If your doctor identifies unusual
areas, he or she may take a small sample of
cells for analysis. Take a Sample of
Cervical Cells. During a biopsy procedure your
doctor removes a sample of unusual cells from
your cervix using special biopsy tools.
Remove a Cone-Shaped Area of Cervical Cells. A
cone biopsy so called because it involves taking
a cone-shaped sample of the cervix - allows your
doctor to obtain deeper layers of cervical cells
for laboratory testing. Your doctor may use a
scalpel, laser or electrified wire loop to cut
away the tissue.

  • Treatment of Cervical Cancer at Most Advanced
    Cancer Centers in India
  • Surgery to remove the cancer. The type of
    surgery needed depends on the location and extent
    of cervical cancer and whether you want to have
    children. There are Various surgeries to treat
    early cervical cancer are
  • Laser surgery  A narrow beam of intense light
    is used to kill abnormal cells. Surgeons usually
    perform this surgery to remove precancerous
    cells.
  • Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP)
     In this procedure, Gyneconcologist uses a wire
    loop to pass electrical current, which cuts
    diseased tissue from the cervix.
  • Conization  Conization, also called a cone
    biopsy, is a procedure that is used to remove a
    cone-shaped piece of tissue from the cervix and
    cervical canal. A pathologist will view the
    tissue under a microscope to look for cancer
    cells.
  • Hysterectomy  In a hysterectomy, the uterus and
    cervix are removed. The ovaries and fallopian
    tubes or pelvic lymph nodes may be taken out
    during the same operation, but this isn't a part
    of every hysterectomy.
  • Lymphadenectomy  In a lymphadenectomy,
    Gyneconcologist removes the lymph nodes that
    drain the cervix.
  • Chemotherapy  Chemotherapy uses anti-cancer
    drugs given intravenously or by mouth to destroy
    cancerous cells. Doctors prescribe higher doses
    of chemotherapy when the cancer has spread beyond
    the tumor or if the cancer returns after initial
    treatment. Studies show that low-dose
    chemotherapy, when combined with radiation
    therapy, improves survival rates in women who
    have advanced cervical cancer. 
  • Radiation therapy  Radiation therapy uses high
    energy beams to reduce the size of a tumor or to
    kill cancer cells. This type of treatment can be
    done internally with radioactive materials that
    are implanted in the uterus or externally with
    the use of a radiation therapy machines.Often
    prescribed with chemotherapy, radiation therapy
    is an effective method of treating cervical
    cancer. It can however, be prescribed alone or
    before or after chemotherapy.
