    Author: Zhang QB.
    Journal: Chin Med J (Engl); 1990 Sep; 103(9):743-7. PubMed ID: 2123775.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of uterine cervical carcinoma, though decreasing in many cities of China, dose not show any diminution in the rural areas where it appears to be high in some regions. Therefore, radical hysterectomy is particularly important for the patients with cervical adenocarcinoma and squamous adenocarcinoma which are insensitive to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The operation is effective in the treatment of early cervical carcinoma and even late carcinoma when the procedure is combined with extraperitoneal radical lymphadenectomy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy reinforced by the traditional Chinese medicine. This operation gets rid of technical difficulties in manipulating the deep pelvic cavities of obese patients, and is suitable for those patients with general weakness, heart and renal diseases, hypertension, severe tuberculosis complicated by the poor tolerance of the abdomen or fear to transabdominal procedures. The detailed procedures of the operation and its results are described.
