Abstract
During 1963-1977, 108 patients with stage IB cervical carcinoma were treated with radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy at the University of California, San Francisco [California, USA]. Of 48 patients followed for 5 or more yr after surgery, 44 are alive (5-yr survival rate, 91.7%). The 5-yr survival rate of all 108 patients using the life-table method is 93.4%. Complications in this series were few; only 1 patient developed a ureterovaginal fistula.
