  • Title: Carcinoma of the cervix in the young patient.
    Author: Kjörstad KE.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1977 Jul; 50(1):28-30. PubMed ID: 876518.
    Abstract:
    Two thousand and two cases of cervical carcinoma were studied, and the patients were divided into 3 age groups specifically to study the prognosis of the young patient. The distribution of histologic tumor types was the same in all age groups. The young patients had a more favorable stage distribution and as a group a better prognosis than the older ones, but within each stage the same 5-year survival was found for all age groups. The period studied was relatively short (6 years), and modern therapy was available to all patients.
