✦ Synopsis

This paper reports the prognosis results of a retrospective study of over 2000 cases of uterine cervix carcinoma totally treated at Institut Gustave-Roussy from 1950 to 1963. From the study of their long-term survival, an overall cure rate was estimated at 49% seven years after the start of primary treatment. A study of several covariables revealed stage and histologic type to be the only significant factors correlated with prognosis. Relative death rates were then estimated at each level of the two interacting variables with increasing risks for increasing stage and greater risk for adenocarcinoma.
