Tumor invades vagina or parametrium but <4 cm; no pelvic sidewall invasion
Treatment Approach for Stage IIA1

Survival Rates and Prognosis
The 5-year survival rate for cervical cancer at Stage IIA1 is approximately 75–85%. Survival rates are statistical averages drawn from large patient populations and may not reflect your individual outcome. Factors that influence your specific prognosis include your age, overall health, tumour biology, and how well the cancer responds to treatment.
Important: These numbers are drawn from historical data. Newer treatments available today may improve outcomes beyond what published statistics show. Discuss your individual prognosis with your oncologist.
