Patients with cervical cancer stage Ib-IVa treated with curative intent at Siriraj Hospital between January and December 2002 were included in the study. There were 362 patients with an age range of 26-86 years old. We found that 65.3% of the patients were treaded according to Siriraj Hospital's clinical practice guideline (CPG) and 34.7% were not treated according to the CPG. Early results of the treatment showed that 70.4% of the patients treated according to the CPG had complete response at 3 months. After further follow up and salvage treatments, five more patients treated according to CPG accomplished complete responses. The overall results of CPG treatment were comparable to the result of cervical cancer treatment in the literature.
