| Expert consensus on nutrition therapy for cervical cancer |
| Cervical cancer is the second big global female reproductive system tumor. Its mortality rate is high, seriously harming
women′s health and endangering their lives. Surgery is an important method for the treatment of early cervical cancer. Radiotherapy
and concurrent chemoradiotherapy are important methods for the treatment of middle and advanced cervical cancer. No matter what
kind of treatment will lead to malnutrition in the body. Especially, recurrent cervical cancer is more prone to severe malnutrition due
to the consumption of disease progression. It is of great significance to carry out standardized and effective nutritional therapy at the
same time in the treatment stage of cervical cancer, which should be regarded as a new concept of comprehensive treatment for cervical
cancer patients. The dietitian should work closely with the clinician and obtain full understanding and cooperation from the patient.
Professional nutritional treatment is beneficial to ensure adequate nutritional supply of patients, to improve nutritional status,
radiotherapy and chemotherapy tolerance, to reduce the frequency of radiotherapy interruption, to increase the cycle of chemotherapy
completion, and to significantly improve the quality of life. |

Abstract Cervical cancer is the second big global female reproductive system tumor. Its mortality rate is high, seriously harming
women′s health and endangering their lives. Surgery is an important method for the treatment of early cervical cancer. Radiotherapy
and concurrent chemoradiotherapy are important methods for the treatment of middle and advanced cervical cancer. No matter what
kind of treatment will lead to malnutrition in the body. Especially, recurrent cervical cancer is more prone to severe malnutrition due
to the consumption of disease progression. It is of great significance to carry out standardized and effective nutritional therapy at the
same time in the treatment stage of cervical cancer, which should be regarded as a new concept of comprehensive treatment for cervical
cancer patients. The dietitian should work closely with the clinician and obtain full understanding and cooperation from the patient.
Professional nutritional treatment is beneficial to ensure adequate nutritional supply of patients, to improve nutritional status,
