You can't get Cervical cancer after your cervix is removed, but you can have residual cancer or HPV infection in the vagina. But it is not necessary or desirable to have a hysterectomy due to high-risk HPV. Simple monitorning is sufficient for most people. If treatment is needed for high-risk HPV, it's because the Pap smear or biopsy was abnormal. It takes many years for HPV infection to cause cervical cancer, and most people will control the virus without ever getting cancer.
oophorectomy
Total hysterectomy is complete removal of you fallopian tubes,ovaries and uterus. We call it total abdominal hysterectomy,oopherectomy and salphingectomy. Technically a Total Hysterectomy is the removal of uterus and cervix. Total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo oopherectomy is the removal of uterus,cervix,fallopian tubes and ovaries
The surgical removal of a uterine fibroid (a leiomyoma) is a myomectomy.
If you are talking about a Pap Smear, the answer is yes. Pap smear is a sample of your cervical tissue which is the lower part of your uterus. Bilateral salpingo-opphorectomy is only removing the fallopian tube and ovaries.
The best treatment for Cervical cancer is a complete abdominal hysterectomy. Generally small samples and lymph nodes are biopsied. follow up with chemotherapy and radiation may be required.

if your question is regarding cervical cancer then only a total hysterectomy which removes the uterus and cervix would prevent cervical cancer. A hysterectomy leaves the cervix in place.
Hysterectomy is only the removal of uterus and you therefore can get cervical cancer, you should continue with pap tests. If you mean a total hysterectomy then both uterus and cervix are removed and cervical cancer is eliminated.
Yes it is providing a total hysterectomy is performed which is the removal of uterus and cervix. A hysterectomy itself (removall of the uterus) will Not prevent cervical cancer.
Yes. Cancer can occur in any organ, not just the uterus. Removing the uterus (ie, having a hysterectomy performed) means that the likelihood of developing a uterine cancer (eg, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer) is exceedingly low, but it does not mean that other cancers (eg, lung, colon, breast) cannot develop elsewhere.
Unless your cervix was removed at the time of your hysterectomy then YES as the purpose of the smear is to find cancerous cervical cells before cancer sets in.
Yes. Cervical cancer is often caused by the HPV virus that is sexually transmitted and by removing the cervix the cancer/virus is also removed if it hasn't spread beyond that point. In the US 600,000 women a year go through a hysterectomy. Some only have the cervix removed while other also have a complete hysterectomy with the ovaries as well.
