title: [A safe site for transposition of ovaries in radical hysterectomy for cervical carcinoma].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To know the influence of twilight by using the radiotherapeutical technique box on hormonal function of ovaries. The aim of transposition of ovaries by radical hysterectomy of the cervical cancer is to move the ovaries out of radiotherapeutical target volume, and thus to protect their hormonal function.
  
  
  METHODS
  Institute for the Care of Mother and Child, Prague, Czech Republic.
  
  
  METHODS
  Computer simulation of radiation isodoses of linear accelerator on the transferred pictures of CT and calculation on the total dose, and radiobiological equivalent outside the target volume of radiation regarding the total dose of 46 Gy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In the pelvis region the minimal dose succeeded in acting as a castrating dose. The safe area is 2.5 cm above the margin of the radiation beam.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It can be recommended to tuck the ovaries 3.5 cm above the margin of the pelvis.
