title: New primary cancers in patients originally presenting with carcinoma of the cervix.
abstract: A total of 4502 patients with carcinoma of the cervix was studied: in 113 patients 116 other primary neoplasms were found and tumours of lung, breast, colon and rectum occurred most frequently. Most of the patients in our series died with the other primary present. Treatment of the cancer of the cervix by radiotherapy seemed to play no role in the induction of anot;er primary cancer.
