Asbestos-related benign disease and cancer: symptoms and treatment.

abstract：:Glassy cell carcinoma (GCC) of the uterine cervix is a highly malignant tumor and has a poor prognosis. As yet, no effective systemic chemotherapy to this tumor has been reported. Here we describe a case of recurrent GCC that responded to paclitaxel and carboplatin combination treatment. The patient, a 32-year-old wom...
