102 patients were treated for adenocarcinoma of the cervix, stage 1 and 2, by radiotherapy and surgery at the Curie Institute between the years 1955 and 1974. Glandular carcinoma represents about 10% of cancers of the uterine cervix. The survival rate is: at five years 81%, at ten years 78%, at fifteen years 74%. This is similar to the survival rate for squamous carcinoma of the same stages. 48% of adenocarcinomata are found to be sterilised on the surgical specimen as compared with 78% in squamous cell carcinomata. This justified the even more frequent use of radiotherapy with surgery in this type of tumour.

Currently, Ovarian Cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological malignancy. In most patients, it progresses without clinical signs or symptoms, leading to a late diagnosis when it has already spread in the peritoneal cavity as peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). To date, OC PC management is based on cytoreductive surgery to remove the macroscopic disease, followed by chemotherapy.

Unlabelled: Our previous study on BRCA breast cancer carriers disclosed a high local recurrence (LR) rate in patients who underwent skin sparing (SSM) or nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) without postoperative radiation therapy (RT), compared to breast conservation surgery or mastectomy with RT. The current study compares the LR rates in BRCA versus non BRCA carriers after SSM/NSM in relation the receipt of RT.

Methods: The study was approved by the institutional ethics committee.
