A member asked:
Are there still chances of cervical cancer after hysterectomy ? hysterectomy was done because had mutiple fibroids which were growing in size .

Usually not, but: It does depends on the kind of surgery. If you had a supracervical hysterectomy (sub-total) then the cervix stays in place. There are some rare cases of cervical cancer after total hysterectomy, they occur in what's called the vaginal cuff, but they are rare.
