Radical Trachelectomy Info needed please.

 

Hi all, I have a couple of question i was hoping you guys could help me with regarding a Radical Trachelectomy please? For those of you that have had radical trachelectomy to remove cervical cancer: 

1) How long did your your operation last for?

2) Were you give the option to have the operation done under a local anesetic instead of general?

3) Bedore you had the RT, did you have to have any scans beforehand? 

Thank you all! :) 

  • Hello BLove28 and welcome to the forum. 

    We've some information on our website here which hopefully may help answer some of your questions. 

    I've had a look through the forum and can't see that we currently have any active members who have had this procedure but if you use the forum search function to look for the term "trachelectomy" you'll find a number of posts which you can read through. 

    If you'd like to speak to one of our team of nurses ahead of your operation you're most welcome to give them a call. They are available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I hope this helps. 
    Best wishes,
