Brief Summary in Lay Language

Aim of the present study is to show, if only removal of sentinel lymph nodes in women with early cervical
cancer leads to an equal overall survival compared to systematic radical pelvic lymphadenectomy and at
the same time is accompanied with considerable reduction of intra- and post operative complications.

Brief Summary in Scientific Language

Aim of the present study is to show, if only removal of sentinel lymph nodes in women with early cervical
cancer leads to an equal overall survival compared to systematic radical pelvic lymphadenectomy and at
the same time is accompanied with considerable reduction of intra- and post operative complications.
We plan to randomize 1200 patients with histologically confirmed cervical cancer stage FIGO 1a1 L1 V0,
FIGO 1a2 L0 or L1 V0, FIGO1b1 L0 or L1 V0 ≤ 2 cm. In group A exclusively sentinel lymphadenectomy is
performed, in group B radical systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy is done. All the patients from both groups with tumor free
lymph nodes either radical hysterectomy or, in women seeking parenthood, radical trachelectomy is
performed. In all patients, if lymph nodes are tumor-involved systematic pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy
followed by primary chemoradiation is recommended.
Primary end point is overall survival which should be equal for both groups. Secondary end point is periand
postoperative morbidity including quality of life, where a benefit for women with sentinellymphadenectomy
should be evident.
