Postsurgical cervical stenosis is a challenging clinical condition, especially in women treated for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or microinvasive cervical cancer. As shown, cervical stenosis can prevent an adequate gynecological follow-up and a prompt diagnosis of malignancies. Therefore, postmenopausal women with cervical stenosis should be carefully counseled, and hysterectomy could be a reasonable option, especially in those cases in which a conservative approach is not feasible, failed, or is not accepted by the patient.
