Influence of metastases on the prognosis of adenocarcinoma of uterine cervix.
95 cases of adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix were analysed for the influence of metastasis on the prognosis. When there was penetration of cervical stroma, < 10 mm or > 10 mm, spread of the tumour to the uterine corpus, metastasis in the ovaries and no detection of metastasis in patients the differences in survival rates were not statistically significant. Local spread of adenocarcinoma to the uterine corpus, penetration of cervical stroma > 10 mm and metastasis to ovaries may not adversely influence the patients survival.
