Preoperative examination did not uncover definitive evidence of parametrial invasion or lymph node metastasis in any of the patients; therefore, all patients underwent LRH/RRH with retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy between <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">April</jats:styled-content> 2006 and <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">December</jats:styled-content> 2013.

We categorized the minimally invasive surgery group into LRH through vaginal colpotomy (LRH‐VC; 79 patients) and LRH/RRH through intracorporeal colpotomy (LRH/RRH‐IC; 49 patients) according to the colpotomic approaches. Disease recurrence was higher in the LRH/RRH‐IC group than in the LRH‐VC group (16.3% vs 5.1%, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> = 0.057), with five patients in the LRH/RRH‐IC group experiencing intraperitoneal spreads.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p>Total laparoscopic/robotic intracorporeal colpotomy under CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> pneumoperitoneum may carry a risk of positive vaginal cuff margin, as well as intraperitoneal tumor spreads in patients with early‐stage cervical cancer treated with LRH/RRH.</jats:p></jats:sec>
