An investigation was made of the effects on cure rate of postoperative radiotherapy following radical hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy for cases of invasive carcinoma of the uterine cervix performed over 7 years between 1969 and 1975 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Tohoku University Hospital. For cases in which resection was complete but the cancer extended to the pelvic wall, the 5 year survival rate was similar to that in comparable cases of the same clinical stage regardless of whether or not postoperative radiotherapy was employed. The 5 year survival rate in cases undergoing postoperative radiotherapy because of lymph node metastasis was lower than that of cases where the lesion approached the pelvic wall and for which postoperative radiotherapy was employed. An investigation of the 5 year survival rate among those cases with lymph node metastasis and receiving postoperative radiotherapy indicated that survival in cases with metastasis to only one lymph node was similar to that of cases of the same clinical stage which received the operation only, whereas the survival rate of cases with multiple lymph node involvement was markedly lower.
