TLDR
Ninety-eight of 621 evaluable patients with cervical cancer enrolled into Gynecologic Oncology Group protocols were found to have periaortic lymph node metastases at staging laparotomy or at exploration for definitive operative management, with a progressive increase in the prevalence.About:

TL;DR: Multi‐variate analysis showed patient age, performance status (PS), PA lymph node status, tumor size, and pelvic node status to be significantly associated with PFI.

Radiological Evaluation of Lymph Node Metastases in Patients With Cervical Cancer: A Meta-analysis
TL;DR: The LAG, CT, and MR imaging perform similarly in the detection of lymph node metastasis from cervical cancer and should be considered the preferred adjuncts to clinical evaluation of invasive cervical cancer.

TL;DR: Nodal involvement detected by FDG-PET in cervical cancer relates to clinical stage, is comparable to historical data, and stratifies patient recurrence and survival outcomes.

TL;DR: Routine para-aortic irradiation for all high risk patients with cervical carcinoma is of limited value, but patients with a high probability of local control can benefit from extended field irradiation, despite an increase in severe digestive complications.

Results and complications of operative staging in cervical cancer: Experience of the Gynecologic Oncology Group
TL;DR: It is still not clear how many patients can be salvaged by treatment to extended paraaortic radiation fields, but longer periods of follow-up in patients whose treatment plans were based on surgical staging information will be required.

Extrapelvic lymph node metastases in cervical carcinoma.
TL;DR: Pretreatment celiotomy with para-aortic lymph node excision and, where positive, followed by scalene lymph nodes excision is valuable in treatment planning in advanced cervical carcinoma limited to the pelvis.

Survival after extraperitoneal pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy and radiation therapy in cervical carcinoma.
TL;DR: Clinical staging, bipedal lymphangiography, and extraperitoneal pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy were performed in 95 patients with invasive squamous carcinoma of the cervix, finding that radiation therapy fails to cure patients because of distant dissemination of disease as well as an inability of conventional radiotherapeutic techniques to sterilize a large primary tumor volume.

TL;DR: Seventy patients with cervical cancer who were not candidates for primary operative treatment underwent operative evaluation prior to radiation therapy, with poor correlation was seen between operative findings, lymphangiography, and clinical staging.

TL;DR: The operative procedure consisted of bilateral pelvic and periaortic lymphadenectomy and exploratory laparotomy, with additional intraperitoneal biopsies taken as indicated by operative findings as discussed by the authors.
