ABSTRACT
An analysis is made of the results of treatment of 96 women with carcinoma of the cervix, Stages IB and II, in a private practice. All 96 women were treated preoperatively with uterine intracavitary radium, followed 6 weeks later by Wertheim hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy. If malignant tumor was present in the lateral pelvic lymph nodes, external radiation was given postoperatively. The over-all survival rates were Stage IB, 88% and 84% at 5 and 10 years; Stage II, 72% and 62% at 5 and 10 years. Regardless of the clinical stage, the highest survival rates were found in those patients who had no malignancy in the lateral pelvic lymph nodes and no residual cervical carcinoma. The lowest survival rates were found in those patients who had both residual cervical carcinoma and lymph node metastases.
