title: [Prognostication of the response of malignant tumors of the cervix uteri to irradiation].
abstract: The paper is concerned with the prognostic value of radiation regression of malignant cervical tumors. Radiation regression rates in the groups of patients subjected to different types of radiotherapy showed a good correlation with these patients' survival. The local use of metronidazole solved in dimexide resulted in an increase in cervical tumor radiation regression rates. Possible mechanisms of interrelationships between cervical tumor growth and radiation regression rates were discussed.
