Despite decreases in incidence in the twentieth century, cervical cancer continues to be a highly morbid disease in the United States. For those diagnosed with locally advanced disease, single-agent cisplatin-based chemotherapy concurrent with radiation remains the mainstay of treatment. For patients with metastatic, progressive, and recurrent disease, treatment typically consists of combination chemotherapy and incorporation of bevacizumab, and recent data show benefits with the addition of upfront immunotherapy in women whose cancer expresses programmed death ligand-1. The physical sequelae of locally advanced cervical cancer treatments stem largely from irradiation of the pelvis, and treatment of these is aimed at identifying reversible or treatable causes of symptoms and palliating those with irreversible causes. From a psychologic standpoint, patients with cervical cancer face the stigma of having a preventable cancer caused by a sexually transmitted infection and the ramifications of sexual dysfunction. Clinicians must invite honest dialogue to be able to address specific survivorship issues.
