Its prevalence has been gradually rising in recent years. The fourth most common malignancy in women worldwide is cervical cancer (CC). Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are examples of conventional treatments, but they are invasive and have negative side effects. In addition, metastasis is observed in roughly 70% of individuals with late-stage CC due to limits and treatment resistance. In addition to treating primary CC, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an alternate CC treatment strategy that has been clinically shown to reduce subsequent metastasis. Because PDT is a non-invasive focused treatment with less adverse effects and reduced resistance to dose repetitions, it is believed to be much more beneficial. This review study’s objective is to examine the studies on PDT’s efficacy in treating cervical cancer.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPhotodyanamic TherapyCervical CancerFotodinamik TedaviServis KanseriBook Chapter10.58830/ozgur.pub80.c1914767
