Publications from the department of women of the University of Rostock suggested the establishment of a histologic stage 1 c for advanced carcinoma of the cervix confined to the cervix itself. The cases from 1960 to 1971 of the first department for women of the University of Vienna were reviewed. In all operable cases radical abdominal hysterectomies and lymphadenectomies were performed. Contrary to our earlier practice, cases in stage 1 c received post-operative radio-therapy for the past year. The authors agree with the establishment of a stage 1 c and a necessity for more intensive treatment of these cases.
