Abstract
Objectives: Racial and socioeconomic disparities in the delivery of cervical cancer (CC) care have been well established. Current guidelines recommend lymph node dissection (LND) as part of the primary surgical treatment of stage IA to IB CC, with the exception of IA1 without LVI. LND is also a consideration when imaging prior to radiation reveals bulky lymphadenopathy. The goal of this study was to evaluate whether age, race or socioeconomic status was associated with disparities in the performance of LND for women with Stage IA and IB CC in Louisiana.
