## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Removal of the parametrial soft tissue is recommended for patients with cervical cancer undergoing radical hysterectomy. Parametrectomy results in significant morbidity. The objective of the study was to determine factors predictive of parametrial tumor spread and to def

The expression of specific cell-adhesion molecule CD44 isoforms (splice variants) is associated with metastatic spread and poor prognosis in human malignancies. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether CD44 isoform expression is a prognostic factor in early-stage cervical cancer. We used 4 diff
