In this study the authors present their findings after the cytological examination of the peritoneal wash at the primary operation of 115 patients suffering from I-IV stages of carcinoma corporis uteri. They found tumor cells in 14 cases and suspicious ones in 2 cases out of 93 cases of stage I. Besides post-operative vaginal radiotherapy they applied percutan radiotherapy and a long-term gestogen and cytostatic treatment in case of the patients with tumor cells in the peritoneal wash.
