title: [Cytomorphologic monitoring in the complex treatment of patients with cancer of the endometrium].
abstract: The paper is devoted to analysis of clinicomorphological data on the status of a primary endometrial tumor in 209 endometrial cancer patients, treated by radical and palliative radiation therapy (112 patients) and the combined method (88 patients) including preoperative intensive concentrated intracavitary irradiation and hormonotherapy. Dynamic cytological monitoring was performed during radiation therapy and in a period up to 12 mos. after the discontinuation of antitumor therapy. Clinicoinstrumental investigations are of low informative value to make conclusions of the time course of tumor regression and its rates, and of the outcome of disease. Dynamic cytomorphological monitoring is an important stage in the integrated diagnosis of endometrial cancer, especially in patients who cannot be operated upon as a result of tumor spreading or somatic contraindications.
