Cervical Cancer Surgery
- What it is
Where Is The Cervix?
The cervix is the neck of the womb (uterus) that connects the body of the womb to the birth canal (vagina).
How Does Cervical Cancer Develop?
Most cervical cancers arises in the little cells in the inner lining of the cervix. Cervical cancers take many years to develop. Over a period of time, the cells lining in the cervix may slowly develop pre-cancerous changes and eventually turn into cancer cells if left untreated. The most commonly used term by doctors to describe these pre-cancerous cells is “Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia (CIN)”.
