Abstract
Introduction: Cervical cancer is the most common genital malignancy among the women in the developing countires. Hence this study was conducted for comparison of FIGO staging with MRI staging for better staging of Carcinoma Cervix, treatment and follow up. Material and methods: 1This prospective study was carried out in the Dept. of OBGY at MGMH, Petlaburj, Hyderabad from June 2012 to August 2014. Results: During this period total number of 42 patients were chosen for study in whom FIGO staging and MRI staging was correlated, most of them under went surgery for stage IA to stage IIA. The patients in whom there was disparity between FIGO staging and MRI staging, Histopathological staging could be best correlated with MRI staging. Conclusion:Carcinoma cervix is primarily staged clinically as per FIGO guidelines with minimal permissible usage of diagnostic modalities though MRI is not included, it is more accurate in determining tumor location, tumor size, depth of stromal invasion and extension into lower uterine segment.
