The study of 69 villous lesions selected from a homogeneous experience confirms the aetiological, symptomatological and evolutive features described in the literature. The difficulty of establishing the therapeutic indication which takes into account all of the factors associated with villous tumours results in a high risk of recurrence. Analysis of the recurrences observed suggests that a flexible therapeutic approach should be adopted, together with a thorough surveillance of the patient according to well established rules.
