CRD SUMMARY: This review compared conventional therapies versus adjuvant phytotherapy in treating patients with cervical cancer. The authors concluded that adjuvant phytotherapy may increase survival and tumour regression rates and decrease vesical complications, but that the results require verification. This cautious conclusion appears to reliably reflect limited evidence from the generally poor quality available trials.
