[Adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix].

The prognosis of 589 patients with adenocarcinoma, 387 with mixed type of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix from 18 hospitals in Japan were evaluated. Stage 0, I a patients with adenocarcinoma or mixed type had good survival. Stage I b, II, III patients had smaller five-year survival (p less than 0.01) than squamous cell carcinoma. Lymph nodes metastasis was related to poorer survival. Radiation therapy or chemotherapy was not sufficient for patients with stage I b, II, III, IV diseases.
