AB - INTRODUCTIONRadical surgery is the primary treatment for early stage cervical cancer. Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) and pelvic lymphadenectomy were initially performed by Nezhat in 1992 and have rapidly evolved since that time.1 However, in 2018, two high‐quality studies reported by the New England Journal of Medicine revealed that minimally invasive surgery was associated with increased tumor recurrence and decreased survival rates.2,3 Therefore, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network® guidelines for cervical cancer suggest open surgery as the gold standard treatment for patients with early stage cervical cancer.4Several potential reasons may explain the increased tumor recurrence caused by laparoscopic surgery, including intracorporeal colpotomy, the use of a uterine manipulator, and the creation of a CO2 pneumoperitoneum.5–8 In 1998, Dr. Guangyi Li, first performed LRH to treat patients with early stage cervical cancer in mainland China.9 This technique gradually replaced open surgery and became a conventional operation at our institution due to its minimally invasive construct.10 In 2013, Dr. Songhua Yuan, the corresponding author of the current study, realized that intracorporeal colpotomy may increase the risk of tumor spillage into the peritoneal cavity; since then, a modified no‐touch laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (MLRH) has been performed routinely for early stage cervical cancer.
