Abstract: 
We present the case of a 34-year-old woman, with cervical cancer Stage IB2, treated with radical trachelectomy (and bilateral lymphadenectomy) instead of radical hysterectomy. Recurrence of the disease was diagnosed just a few months after the initial operation. Although the woman's desire was the preservation of fertility, it should be emphasized that best cancer treatment according to stage, is necessary to not endanger the patients’ life.
