1. 1. Predictive and prognostic factors in cervical carcinomas treated with (chemo-) radiotherapy

   Författare :Louise Bohr Mordhorst; Bengt Sorbe; Preben Kjölhede; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cervical carcinoma; radio-chemotherapy; biomarkers; predictive factors; prognostic factors; multiprotein analysis; Hedgehog pathway; Wnt β-catenin pathway; Surgery; Kirurgi;

   Sammanfattning : A series of 131 women with cervical carcinoma FIGO stage I-IV were treated with external radiotherapy and intracavitary brachytherapy. In 47 patients (36%) concomitant chemotherapy was given. One hundred and twenty-one tumors (92%) achieved complete remission. Addition of chemotherapy increased primary cure rate to 98%. LÄS MER
