The cervix cancer takes the second place among the types of cancer in women and the fifth place among all of the types affecting the human being. A retrospective, longitudinal study was performed in patients suffering from infiltrative cervix cancer and they were given surgical treatment between 1988 and 1993 at Abel Santamaría Cuadrado General Hospital in Pinar del Río. A survey was made applying it to 37 patients; data were collected from the clinical records and from the interview to patients. Age, number of deliveries, age at the first coitus and first delivery and survival were the studied variables. It was found that 40-49 year old group was the most frequent among the studied patients, all the patients had given birth, over more than half of patients started sexual relations before 17 years of age. Adolescence prevailed as first - delivery age in patients and only one of them died during this period.
