Abstrakt: One hundred and fifteen patients with carcinoma of the cervix were treated by full radiation therapy followed by radical hysterectomy and lymph node dissection after an interval of 6 weeks to 3 months. The over-all 5 year survival rate in this highly selected group composed largely of cases of Stage I and Stage II carcinomas was 80.0 per cent. Twelve of the 115 patients were potentially salvaged by the addition of operation. Thirty-three of the 115 patients showed major complications after operation.
