OBJECTIVE: Translation and validation of the EORTC QLQ-CX24 questionnaire on quality of life into the Czech language and literature. TYPE OF STUDY: Prospective study. SETTING: Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2nd Medical Faculty, Charles University and Faculty Hospital Motol, Prague. METHODS: In concordance with the EORTC guidelines a questionaire for patients with cervical cancer was translated and validated. A group of 14 women who underwent the treatment for cervical cancer filled in the questionaire. T-test was used for the evaluation of the patient's characteristics and the differences in quality of life. RESULTS: We present a Czech version of the questionaire EORTC QLQ-CX24 and the description how to evaulate it. In comparison of the two treatment groups no statistically significant differences have been found. CONCLUSION: EORTC QLQ-CX24 is an internationally accepted questionnaire focused on patients with cervical cancer which should be incorporated into the projects dealing with women undergoing treatment for this disease.
