Abstract

There are operative method and radiotherapy and immunotherapy in the treatment for the uterine cervical cancer. For the satisfactory treatment, several conditions must be considered, such as, the extension of the cancer, age, physical status or complication of the patient, side effect of the treatment and sensitivity to the radiation or anti-cancer agent. In the present time, without the profound understanding of the characteristics and biological behaviors of the uterine cervical cancer, we can not treat the cancer patient correctly. From the several clinical and follow-up data, in this article, time course of the uterine cervical cancer is estimated, and individualization of the treatment for the uterine cervical cancer will be shown.
