Successful Pregnancy following Myomectomy Accompanied with Abdominal Radical Trachelectomy for an Infertile Woman with Early Cervical Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review

الملخص EN

Women in the reproductive age group diagnosed with cervical cancer can receive radical trachelectomy in case they wish to preserve fertility.

However, the indication for this procedure in infertile women with cervical cancer is controversial depending on the underlying cause of infertility.

Here, we present a case of a successful pregnancy following myomectomy accompanied with abdominal radical trachelectomy for an infertile woman with early cervical cancer.

The patient was a 38-year-old nulliparous woman with a significant past medical history of infertility of unknown origin.

She had been undergoing treatment with assisted reproductive technologies including artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization for over four years.

During her treatment for infertility, she was diagnosed with stage IB1 cervical squamous cell carcinoma.

She received abdominal radical trachelectomy and abdominal myomectomy in the same surgical procedure.

Six months after the surgery, she went for the first embryo transfer and became pregnant.

At 26 weeks of pregnancy, a male baby weighing 980 g was delivered with an Apgar score of 3/5/7 by cesarean section due to chorioamnionitis.

The baby has received general care in a neonatal intensive care unit for four months and weighed 4520 g when discharged.
