[Use of olivomycin in the treatment of cancer of the uterine cervix].
Olivomycin was used locally as 0.2% ointment (20-40 tampons) in 39 cervical cancer cases (I stage--27 patients, II--8, III--1 and IV--2 patients) and in 2 vaginal cancer cases (II stage). There was noted a visual disappearance of the neoplasm in 24 cases, the decrease up to 1/3 of initial tumor dimensions in 11 cases, up to 1/2-2/3--in 5 cases. There was no effect in one case of cervix adenocarcinoma. An extended extirpation of the uterus with its adnexa was carried out after the treatment in 36 cases, in 13 of which no histological signs of tumor were found. Two patients are being under observation, because they refused the operation in view of the complete disappearance of the tumor.
