Abstract
The response of 17 cases is described. Supervoltage irradiation alone brings about adequate radiation reaction in cervix and vagina and good clinical regression of the primary lesion and of parametrial extension as the immediate result of treatment in the majority of cases. There is a remarkable absence of ill effects. Constitutional disturbances and rectal and bladder reactions are negligible.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
