Dear lybrate-user Uterus Cancer management involves three modalities: surgery,chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Depending on the clinical stage of the patient [ which is determined on CT scan ],condition of the patient, further therapy is planned. If disease is localised [ which your doctor will decide based on imaging tests],surgery is the best treatment possible in this disease. After surgery, depending on the pathological stage, further therapy is planned i.e whether further radiation and chemotherapy is required or not.In the unfortunate circumstance of the disease being advanced [ metastatic ] ,then only chemotherapy is advised and surgery or radiation may be given depending on her symptoms. SO THE BEST OPTION IN HER CASE ENTIRELY DEPENDS ON THE CLINICAL STAGE OF THE DISEASE. The consequences of surgery if she undergoes surgery to an extent depends on whether the ovaries are also removed or not. She will have minimal risk of post operative complications and premature menopause [ if ovaries are also removed]
