Young patients with normal ovaries can be preserved. For young patients who wish to preserve their fertility, cervical conization or radical tracheectomy is an especially feasible option in the early stages. Different surgical procedures are selected according to the different stages of the patient.

2. Radiation therapy

In recent years, surgery combined with preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (intravenous or arterial infusion chemotherapy) has been used to shrink tumor lesions and control subclinical metastasis.
