  • The standard and recommended approach for RH is an open abdominal approach.
  • For stage IB2-IIA disease, minimally invasive RH might be considered in research settings.
  • The SHAPE trial is the only phase III RCT so far. According to the results, simple hysterectomy was not superior to RH in early-stage, low-risk cervical cancer.
  • Simple hysterectomy may be considered a treatment option for stage IA2-IB1 disease.
  • If SLNB is available and SLNs are negative, systemic lymphadenectomy can be omitted (no further nodal dissection).
  • For SLNB, pathologic ultrastaging of SLNs is preferred to detect low-volume metastasis.
  • If SLN mapping fails, side-specific LND should be performed. Bulky nodes should be removed.
  • Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is not standard but can be considered in low-resource settings.
