title: [Percutaneous and intracavitary radiotherapy of non-operated cervix carcinoma].
abstract: At the Krankenhaus der Barmherzigen Schwestern in Linz 153 patients with cancer of the uterine cervix in the stages I to III have been treated from August 1980 to December 1985. In 146 patients (95.4%) complete remission could be achieved. The 5-years overall survival probability (Kaplan-Mayer) in the stages I to III is 79.3%, 62.6% and 40.8% respectively. The 5-years recurrence free survival rate is 91.5%, 59.6% and 52.9% respectively. These results are equivalent to the data achieved by treatments with Radium application. Using the high-dose-rate afterloading method the complication rate is lower.
