A novel tumour associated antigen, 22-1-1, has been recently described in association with a cervical adenocarcinoma cell line. The aims of this paper were to study the tissue distribution of this antigen in sections of gynaecological cancer specimens and to compare it with negative controls. Six cases of cervical cancers, 5 cases of endometrial cancers, 4 cases of ovarian cancers and 5 cases e...

CONTEXT Composed of all or a portion of 13 states, Appalachia is a heterogeneous, economically disadvantaged region of the eastern United States. While mortality from cancer in Appalachia has previously been reported to be elevated, rates of cancer incidence in Appalachia remain unreported. PURPOSE To estimate Appalachian cancer incidence by stage and site and to determine if incidence was gr...

The characteristic distribution of uterine cancer in man with a high incidence in the cervix and a low frequency in the fundus does not obtain in the rabbit. Carcinoma of the uterine fundus is by far the most common of all neoplasms in the rabbit (1) whereas cervical cancer has not been observed in our laboratory nor has its occurrence been reported in the literature.

To date, only seven women with Stage Ib1 to IIb cervical cancer during pregnancy treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical surgery have been reported. We describe three cases of pregnant women with Stage Ib1 to IIa cervical cancer who were treated with paclitaxel plus platinum neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical surgery. The first patient had a Stage Ib1 small cell neur...

This paper presents results of a retrospective ecological analysis of cervix uteri cancer incidence in relation to the ethnic situation in the province of Opole, Poland. A few well-known methodological procedures were applied in the study. Detecting spatial disease clusters followed Tango's method. Estimates of relative risks of cancer morbidity were calculated via Clayton and Kaldor's empirica...

METHODS a transversal populational study, including 323 deaths by uterine cervix cancer, among which 261 were recorded in the Information System about Mortality and 62 were identified after investigation on deaths by cancer at no...

AIMS AND BACKGROUND Basilicata and Calabria are two neighboring, low income regions of southern peninsular Italy with an overall population of about 2.5 million in 2010. Cancer registration has covered the entire Basilicata population since 2005 and the province of Catanzaro (18.3% of the Calabria population) since 2003. This paper will provide estimates and projections for the period 1970-2015...
