title: [Clear cell carcinoma of the female genital tract].
abstract: From 1980 to 1989 clear-cell carcinoma was diagnosed in 66(4.2%) out of 1562 adenocarcinomas of the female genital tract: in the ovary, 2.9% in the endometrium, 9.8% in the uterine cervix; 4.5% in the vagina, and 1.9% in the Fallopian tube. The diagnosis was made at clinical stage I in 26.9% of cases located in the ovary, 62.5% in the endometrium, and 42.8% in the uterine cervix. At stages III and IV the highest percentage of cases was diagnosed in the ovary -42.3% and 26.9%, respectively. The material was divided into the histological subtypes, and the glandular papillary was found in 54.5%, the tubulocystic in 31.8% and the solid in 13.6% of cases. The tubulocystic subtype showed the best prognosis, with the 50% five-year survival rate, while the glandular papillary subtype had 38.1%, and the solid subtype a 14.3 five-year survival rate was 66.6% for the ovary, 85% for the endometrium and 75% for the uterine cervix. For all other stages together (II, III, IV), the five-year survival rate was 0% for the ovary, 20% for the endometrium and 0% for the uterine cervix.
