[Serum lipids in uterine cancer]

In 40 patients with uterine cancer changes were studied in total lipids, beta-lipoproteids and cholesterol in serum prior to, during and 4 years following the treatment. All patients were characterized by a low level of total lipids and increased cholesterol values, the former were normalized under the influence of the therapy in disappearance of the symptoms. The level of beta-lipoproteids decreased prior to the treatment was reliably increased during it only in patients with cervical cancer subjected to the combination treatment (surgery & irradiation).
