title: [Treatment results with malignant cervical cancer in the Department of Medicine of the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena in 1965 to 1976. IV. An evaluation of primary radiological therapy via contact and percutaneous irradiation].
abstract: 414 patients with cervical carcinoma were treated by radiation only because of local or general inoperability. The 5-years-survival of these patients was 50.7%. The importance of primary irradiation in treatment of carcinoma of cervix is pointed out. Kind and frequency of side effects of the several different methods of radiation are investigated. Alterations of the rectum were the most common complication and especially frequent, if both x-ray radiation and local radiological therapy (radium, cobalt60 , caesium137 ) were performed. The therapy with percutane telecobalt in combination with local radioactive sources was followed by a small rate of complications.
