The author reviews the actual criteria for the treatment of the advanced carcinoma of the cervix, he presents his experience of 55 cases treated with pelvic exenteration at the instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas, Lima Perú , between 1953 and 1965. The overall survival rate in his serie was 11 %; several tables with morbidity and mortality data are presented.

The problem of radical surgery in gynecological cancer was presented by Dr. Luis Esteves in relation to the casuistry and experience in the Dept.

The authors have studied 9 cases of primary carcinoma of the Fallopian tube; this means an incidence of 0.09 % in a total of 9266 malignant tumors of the genital tract observed at the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplásicas, Lima Perú, between 1952 and 1966.

Basal cell carcinoma of the vulva is a very rare lesion, and occupies the fourth place in the total of malignant tumors of the vulva attended at the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas of Lima, with an incidence of 2,7 per cent. The simple vulvectomy is the most adequate from of therapy when the basal cell carcinoma is present by itself, i.e. pure. The radical vulvectomy and bilateral regional node dissection must be practiced in all cases of basal squamous cells lesions.
