Do you offer adjuvant treatment for patients with early-stage cervical cancer and isolated tumor cells identified in sentinel lymph nodes, if they would otherwise not meet criteria for adjuvant radiation therapy?

ITCs are treated as n0 in all cancers and thus in the absence of all other risk factors, I would recommend observation.

I may have a lower threshold re: the discussion of RT for patients that have 1 or 2 risk factors or are otherwise close to meeting Sedlis criteria.
