Abstract
The epidemiological and clinical characteristics of cervical carcinoma in Sardinia were examined, with particular regard to the low incidence (6.47/100,000 women) of these neoplasias. Postsurgical adjuvant Radiotherapy in the high-risk cases has allowed a constant improvement in therapeutic results, with a low relapse-incidence and a high percentage of survival, especially in first and second stage treated cases.
