Abstract:
The purpose of the current study was to detect the potential therapeutic role of a survival benefit for women with advanced and recurrent endometrial carcinoma for their poor prognosis.A number of published studies for women with advanced and recurrent endometrial cancers were reviewed.We found that surgery had been the primary treatment of choice for an endometrial carcinoma.Where disease has spread to the uterine cervix,extended or radical surgery may be curative.The systematic lymph node resection improves the survival of women with intermediate/high-risk endometrioid uterine cancer,especially non-endometrioid carcinoma.The omentectomy may be beneficial for non-endometrioid cancer.A number of studies report a survival benefit from surgical cytoreduction in women with advanced and recurrent disease,although the degree of surgical effort is required in order to achieve an optimal result varies.Laparoscopic and robotic surgical staging for uterine cancer might be considered as a standard of care for endometrial cancer without extra-uterine metastasis.Laparotomy should be the first choice for extra-uterine metastasis and recurrent disease.Adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy have a potential role in the management of high-risk,advanced,and recurrent disease.Efficacy of targeted and endocrinal treatment in women with advanced and recurrent endometrial cancer has been proved.
