[Combined radiodiagnosis of the lymphogenic spread of the process in uterine cancer].

The data obtained by indirect lower radiolymphography with 113mIn--containing radionuclides, direct X-ray color lymphography, serial renal scintigraphy and intravenous urography were compared with the results of a histologic examination of the iliac lymph nodes in 102 cases (81.3%) of cervical cancer. Radiolymphography appeared to be of high diagnostic value in assessing the status of the pelvic lymph nodes in this type of cancer. A high incidence of urodynamic disturbances (34.2%) was observed in cases of retroperitoneal lymph node involvement. Indications for radionuclide and X-ray examination of regional lymphatics in cervical cancer were established.
