  2. Abstract

This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows:

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of adjuvant radiotherapy, chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy and chemoradiation after radical hysterectomy for early stage cervix cancer (stages IB1, IB2 or IIA). In particular, we sought to evaluate whether these interventions improve survival and to assess any associated morbidity.
