title: [Anatomical-clinical presentation and prognostic factors in cancers of the cervix at the General Hospital of Yaounde].
abstract: The objective of this work was to search for and precise all the facts related to clinical anatomo and the prognosis capable of individualising the sick in our midst. We proposed to analyse 111 files of cases treated for the cancer of the uterine neck in the gynaecology services and cancerology-radiotherapy in the General Hospital, Yaounde. All the facts related to the clinical anatomo presentations of the patients were noted as well as the therapeutic results in accordance with the facts and the technical means of treatment. All these facts have been compared to the ones of the literature. We established that the clinical anatomo presentation of the cases in our series is comparable to the one of the literature taking into account the previous history, the general state, the symptoms and the clinical signs. On the other hand, it differs relatively by the important proportion of the young, the long diagnosis delay, the importance of the extensive stages and the additional prognosis factors in relation with the inadequacy of technical means of treatment. In conclusion, a lucid reorientation of our policy to fight against cancers in general and of cancer of the uterine neck in particular that takes into account the reality of the data based on the clinical and prognosis facts of our patients is needed.
