From the Regional Department of Gynaecological Oncology, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Sheriff Hill, Gateshead, England.
Seventy-three patients with adenocarcinoma of the cervix were seen between 1969 and 1983. This represented 8.1% of all carcinoma of cervix seen during that period. Survival rates in stage Ib were significantly worse for those with poorly differentiated lesions and for those with involved pelvic lymph nodes. Age at presentation appeared to decline over the period of the study. When the patients with stage Ib lesions were compared with a group of stage Ib squamous carcinomas treated in the same unit, there was no difference in age at presentation, node metastasis rates, or survival. Four patients had cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in addition to adenocarcinoma.
