Table 2 There were no patients with paraaortic lymph node metastasis in the extended-field group and 6 patients with paraaortic lymph node metastasis (35.29%) in the pelvic-field group. The difference was statistically significant (P=0.0184). There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the pelvic recurrence rate and distant metastasis.
