Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Radium, Vol. 7: A Monthly Journal Devoted to the Chemistry, Physics and Therapeutics of Radium and Radio-Active Substances; June, 1916
Patient (6) had an inoperable fungating epithelioma of the vulva which caused her great pain and discomfort, and bled frequently. She was treated in April, and improved so markedly that Dr. Alfred Smith, of St. Vincent's Hospital, was easily able to remove the growth. Dr. Smith kindly wrote to me, saying, The progress of the case was most interesting. I look forward with much concern as to the ultimate result; there is no doubt as to the clinical cure, the future can only determine its permanency. She came to my ward a physical wreck. She returned home without any trace of the tumor. Feeling and looking well. The present dose was intended as a prophylactic one. I am sorry to say this patient has now, after six months, apparently some return of her trouble, and is coming up from the country for further treatment.
