Material and Methods

Evaluation: All cases with locally advanced cervical tumours are

evaluated by the Committee of Gynaecological Tumours. Patients

undergo computerized tomography (CT), MRI and, in some cases,

positron emission tomography-CT (PET-CT) studies, and pelvic-

paraaortic lymphadenectomy is performed for staging.

Chemotherapy involved the use of cisplatin 40 mg/m2, 1 day/week

during 5 weeks.
