Cervical cancer that invades deeper into the cervix is referred to as invasive cancer and requires more extensive treatment.
Treatment options may include:
- Surgery
A radical hysterectomy.
- Radiotherapy
Radiation therapy uses high-powered energy to kill cancer cells and can be given externally using external beam radiation or internally by placing devices filled with radioactive material near the cervix.
- Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy uses strong anti-cancer chemicals to kill cancer cells.
