A member asked:
Please tell how much chances of survival of neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Small cell : Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix is rare, accounting for < 3% of cases, so there optimal treatment is not known. With current treatments, the 5 year likelihood of survival is about 50%, however the stage of the tumor (size, invasion into surrounding normal tissue, spread outside the cervix) is very important, and could adjust that number up or down depending on how advanced the tumor is.
