In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Gloria Salvo and Dr. Rene Pareja to discuss IRTA: Open vs MIS Radical Trachelectomy.  Dr. Salvo was trained as a gynecologist in Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Argentina and works as a Clinical Reviewer/Data Abstractor of the Neuroendocrine Cervical Tumor Registry (NeCTuR) at MD Anderson Cancer Center.   She has published several articles in cervical cancer including sentinel lymph node mapping and fertility-sparing surgery, neuroendocrine cervical carcinomas, and is the first author of the IRTA Study.Highlights-In this multicenter retrospective study, we found no difference in the 4.5-year DFS rates between open radical trachelectomy and minimally invasive radical trachelectomy in patients with tumors up to 2 cm, even after adjusting for potential confounding variables because of unbalanced groups.-There was no difference in the OS rates or recurrence rates between the open surgery and MIS groups.-Risk factors for relapse were more common in the open surgery group, but oncologic outcomes were similar for the open and minimally invasive approaches.
