Abstract
In this series of Uterine Cervical Cancers 1955-1958, the five-year survival rate for adenocarcinotna was lower than that for epidermoid carcinoma. The survival rate was about equal in both when the lymph nodes were free of tumour cells whereas in the presence of lymph node metastasis the survival rate for adenocarcinoma was much lower. The incidence of lymph node metastases was also higher with adenocarcinoma. From a review of the literature and our personal experience the authors feel that the present forms of treatment are ineffective for adenocarcinoma of the cervix and propose that future treatment should be: Surgery followed by chemotherapy for adenocarcinoma and chemotherapy and/or irradiation followed by surgery for small cell carcinoma.
