Radiotherapy in carcinoma of the uterine cervix phase III

Abstract

Between April 1968 and December 1980, 61 patients with phase III cancer of the cervix were treated. Fifty-six of them were squamous-cell carcinomas and five adenocarcinomas. The treatment consisted of a combination of external irradiation at doses varying between 4,000 and 7,000 rads and intracavitary radiotherapy with doses of 4.000 to 6.000 MHz, according to the schemes of the D.M. Anderson of Houston. The results obtained as far as survival is concerned and calculated by the actuarial method were 40% after five and ten years. The local control rate reached was 74%. The severe complications caused by the treatment reached 8.1%.
