Carcinoma of the cervix is the most common gynecologic cancer found during pregnancy. Management and treatment of this condition depend on cancer stag e, estimated gestational age, and ethical, religious, and personal desires. Review of the medical literature in English from 1965 to 1998 is presented with recommendations for management. Semin. Surg. Oncol. 16:251-260, 1999. (C) 1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
