Abstract
Carcinoma of the cervix uteri is the second most diagnosed cancer during pregnancy. Although gestational cervical cancer is rare abnormal PAP smears and preinvasive lesions are frequently found during pregnancy. The present article depicts a practical approach to preinvasive cervical lesions during pregnancy. Furthermore, therapeutic options in cases of invasive cervical carcinoma diagnosed during pregnancy are presented according to the gestational stage and cancer stage, taking into account pregnancy preservation.
