Abstrakt     A conservative surgical approach for stage IA cervical carcinoma was adopted in 1981, when a scoring system based on the evaluation of morphological criteria was introduced in our Department. Results with the different treatment modalities of 237 cervical carcinomas at stage IA operated in our Department between 1981 to 1997 are presented. In the first eight-year period (1981-88), 36.1% of cases were treated by conization, 33.7% by simple and 30.2% by radical hysterectomy. In the last ob- servation period (1993-1997), conization was performed in 65% of cases, simple hysterectomy in 27.5%, hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy in 7.5%. There were no cases with iodications for radical hysterectomy. Our experience indicates that conservative management of stage IA cervical cancer is indicated and safe when the exact evaluation of tumour extension and surgical margins of the cone are assured.
