Treatment of advanced cervical cancer: a population-based study.
Chemoradiation is the standard treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer. We report how our population were treated over a 6-year period. Approximately 78.7% of all patients with advanced cervical cancer received chemoradiation, which appears to be well tolerated and acceptable to patients.
