This study aims to help to screen out appropriate cases for consolidation therapy and more intensive follow up.
Some cervical cancer patients experienced distant metastasis quickly after receiving complete radiotherapy and have a worse prognosis. However, there were few studies focused on these patients and with early distant metastasis. It is significant to predictive and screen out cervial cancer patients with a high risk of early metastasis for more comprehensive treatments and follow-up plans
