✦ Synopsis


From 1965 to 1982, 86 analyzable patients with uterine sarcoma were treated. Nineteen patients (22 %) presented with advanced disease. For the patients with curable diseases (67 patients), the disease-free survivals with a median follow-up of 4.5 years are 40% (surgery only), 53% (surgery + chemotherapy), 46% (surgery + radiation & chemotherapy). The local failure rates are 43 % : 32 % :33 % , respectively. There is no statistical significance. The most important prognostic factor is the clinical extent of the tumor. The role of radiation therapy and chemotherapy will be discussed.
