ResumoSurvival data, prognostic factors, and patterns of recurrence were analyzed for 70 women with adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix treated between 1968 and 1982. The 5-year survival rates for stages I, II, and III-IV were 82, 90, and 38%, respectively. Control of pelvic tumor was achieved in 82, 80, and 12.5% of cases of stage I, II, and III-IV disease, respectively. When radiation therapy techniques alone were employed, pelvic control was achieved in 100% of stage I and 75% of stage II cases. Tumor grade was an important prognostic factor in stage I disease, with 92% of patients with grade 1 and 2 lesions surviving 5 years, in contrast to 68% of patients with grade 3 lesions (P less than 0.05, log rank test).
