But Julie was a unique case, because it is this girl choose British oncologists decided to test a new method of treatment of the disease. The operation is called a total laparoscopic radical trahelektomiya.

When the procedure is used a tiny tube with a flashlight on the end (laparoscope) is placed in the uterus to find tumors and their further removal.
Julie Johnston went through this procedure in July. The girl already has a six-year-old daughter from a young man, but the current beloved Julie has no children. And he dreamed that Julie gave him the child. So for her, this operation was saving twice.

Two weeks later, doctors declared the patient healthy - no sign cancer her body was left.
