[Combined radiation therapy of cervical cancer using a split course].
The author studied the possibilities of combined radiation therapy conducted by a split (group I) and continuous course (group II) in 195 patients with neglected forms of cervix uteri cancer. The patients of the two groups were of the same age, had the same somatic diseases, the extent of the tumor spread and the anatomical and clinical forms of the tumor. The methods of radiotherapy used for them differed both in time and space parameters. The continuous course of treatment was presented as a conventional classic variant of radiotherapy, the split course included a break at a half of the focal cumulative dose brought to the tumor growth site. The author shows the advantages of the split method for the treatment of cervix uteri cancer. Indications for the split course of treatment are given.
