Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility and safety of a novel and less radical fertility preserving surgery; laparoscopic lymphadenectomy with sentinel lymph node identification (SLNI) followed by large cone or simple trachelectomy. Obstetrical and oncological outcomes were evaluated.

Keywords: simple trachelectomy, sentinel lymph node, cervical cancer, fertility sparing surgery
