A multifactorial analysis was done of clinical past history of 520 female patients with cancer of the ovary, 482 patients with cancer of the endometrium, and of 513 essentially healthy women (control group). 23 historical and clinical sings were regarded as risk factors for development of cancer of the ovary and endometrium (disordered menstrual and reproductive functions, chronic inflammatory processes, benign tumours of the uterus and adnexa uteri, pretumour affections of the skin, and other pathologies). Of these, 15 sings were recognized as being of high informative value.
