What does this stage mean?
Stage 1 cervical cancer is curable in 85-95% of cases with appropriate treatment. Stage 1A1 (microinvasion): cone biopsy or simple hysterectomy. Stage 1A2 to 1B1 (under 2cm): radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection, OR radical trachelectomy for women wishing to preserve fertility. Stage 1B2 onwards: radical hysterectomy or chemoradiation depending on tumour size and patient factors.

What is the likely outcome?
5-year survival 90%+ for Stage 1A, 80-90% for Stage 1B properly treated. Outcomes are stage-dependent and individual; the figures above are averages from published series.
Is fertility preservation possible?
For carefully selected Stage 1A-1B1 cases, radical trachelectomy preserves the uterus for future pregnancy. Eligibility is strict and requires multi-disciplinary review.
