A Population-based Study of Cervix Cancer: Incidence, Management and Outcome in the Canadian Province of Saskatchewan

Our population-level outcomes are in keeping with published observed results and provide some of the first Canadian population-level data on HDR and LDR outcomes. We found no significant different in cause-specific survival between patients managed with HDR and LDR, although interpretation is limited by patient numbers. Our results for external beam radiotherapy alone emphasise the vital role brachytherapy plays in the management of cervical cancer.
