title: [The complications of radical hysterectomy in the treatment of cervix uteri carcinoma].
abstract: Complications of radical surgery in 60 cases of cervicouterine cancer are presented with the purpose of evaluating the morbi-mortality associated with this treatment. Radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy was the most frequent surgery. Intraoperative complications reached to 13.3%; the most frequent was the vascular venous lesion. Minor postoperative complications reached to 15% and majors to 6.7%. There was no mortality associated with the treatment. Five year survival for this series was 91% for FIGO Stage IB and 86% for FIGO Stage IIA.
