[Assessment of the results of treating II- and III-stage cervical cancer, parametrial variant, by using different sources of teleradiation].
The data on patients with the parametrial spread of cervical cancer, stage II and III, treated by different types of distant radiotherapy are analysed. An insignificant improvement of the 5-year cure results was noted only in patients in stage II, when treated on modern gammatron machines as compared with the previously used roentgenotherapy, and it may be due to a larger radiation dosage. The number of early and late complications is found to increase. Some methodical recommendations for treatment of these patients are given.
