Özet

Objectives: Evaluation of the effect of lymphadenectomy in disease-free and overall survival on the low risk corpus cancer. Material and methods: Between 1994 and 2012, a total of 257 patients with endometrioid type, grade 1 or 2, myometrial invasion < 1/2, no intraoperative evidence of macroscopic extrauterine spread was treated surgically. Pelvic lymphadenectomy was performed in 184 cases, and not performed in 73 cases. Results: There was no difference between two groups about tumor sizes. Also lymphovascular space invasion and histologic grade of two groups were similar. Omission of LA did not worsen DFS and OS in early stage low risk corpus cancer. Conclusions: Patients who have low risk corpus cancer, can be treated optimally with hysterectomy only.
