[Intracavity thermo- and gamma-therapy of uterine cancer]

Some methodological problems of the use of intracavitary UHF hyperthermia combined with intracavitary gamma-beam therapy in combined radiation therapy of uterine cancer patients are considered. Indications for the use of this method and radiobiological substantiation of thermoradiotherapy for this group of patients are discussed. The advantages of the proposed method of thermoradiotherapy have been noted on the basis of immediate clinical observations, endoscopic, x-ray and morphometric findings.
