The identification of patients with endometrial cancer (EC) at higher risk for relapse is critical to individualize and better tailor postoperative treatment. No evidence is available regarding the possible association between tumor size (TS) and the risk of local recurrence. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between TS and risk/type of recurrence in EC patients, stratified according to the new European Society of Medical Oncology-European Society of Gynecological Oncology-European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology classification.

Abstract

The identification of patients with endometrial cancer (EC) at higher risk for relapse is critical to individualize and better tailor postoperative treatment. No evidence is available regarding the possible association between tumor size (TS) and the risk of local recurrence. The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between TS and risk/type of recurrence in EC patients, stratified according to the new European Society of Medical Oncology-European Society of Gynecological Oncology-European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology classification.
