Abstract

Within the time from January 1984 to March 1987 209 patients with female genital neoplasms have been treated in the Hospital Central Maputo in People's Republic of Moçambique. There were nearly 85% cervical carcinomas and about 15% of chorion-carcinomas. Only two cases (0.9%) were endometrial cancers. 80% of the cervical carcinomas were diagnosed in stage III and IV. 31 cases had been operated on radically by abdominal route. Further epidemiological dates are published.
