Abstract
A combination of irradiation therapy followed by radical hysterectomy (Wertheim's operation) was used in 140 cases of stage 1 or stage II carcinoma of the cervix. The results indicate that it is superior to irradiation alone. Five year survival rates for the patients with stage I and stage II lesions were 87.5 per cent and 70.3 per cent, respectively.
