title: [Lymphogenic metastasis of cervical cancer and selection of the optimal method of extent of pelvic lymphadenectomy in Wertheim's operation].
abstract: The frequency and sequence of metastatic invasion of pelvic and retroperitoneal lymph nodes in patients with cervical cancer have been studied. It was found that inferior and superior ileac lymph nodes in this category of patients are the main zone of regional metastasization. These should be included in a block of tissue to be resected in Wertheim's operation. The rationale of an extened variant of lymphadenectomy is supported by the data that characterize the immediate, early and remote results of the treatment in patients with cervical cancer and lymphogenic metastases. A high percentage of 3-year survival was gained in patients operated after an extended variant of Wertheim's operation.
