A member asked:
Is radiation be used to treat uterine cancer? after a hysterectomy, will i still need radiation treatments for uterine cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: You should discuss with your oncologist and gynecologist but what steps are required after hysterectomy depend on how advanced the cancer is when it is discovered. If it is confined to the uterus often a hysterectomy is all that is needed. If it is spread outside the uterus other treatments may be needed.
