Locally advanced cervical cancer
Curr Opin Obstet Gynecol.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is a tremendous health problem as the third most frequent cancer affecting women. Locally advanced disease, which exceeds that successfully treated with surgery, is a common presentation of unscreened women. The use of concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy has resulted in a significant increase in patient survival. Our understanding of cervical tumor biology has the potential for further improvements.
