The results of neutron irradiation of 36 patients with uterine sarcoma are presented. Patients were subdivided in 3 groups: A: no residual tumour post-surgery; B: macroscopic tumour ranging from <1 to 11 cm in diameter; C: advanced or metastatic disease. The median survival was 42 months (Group A),
Twenty-one cases of sarcoma botryoides of the uterine cervix, including four previously unreported cases, are reviewed. The age of the patients ranged from 5 months to 48 years, with a peak incidence in the group aged 14 to 18 years. Eighty percent of the patients are alive, with a mean follow-up pe
Uterine leiomyomas are benign tumors that arise clonally from smooth muscle cells of the myometrium. Cytogenetic studies of uterine leiomyomas have shown that about 40% have chromosome abnormalities and that deletion of 7q is a common finding. The observations suggest the possible location of a grow
