Abstract:
Endometrial cancer is increasing in South Korea. In young women, endometrial cancer can be treated by progestins for preserving fertility. We experienced a successful case of twin pregnancy after conservative therapy of endometrial cancer with Megestrol acetate. Ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination was done. A brief review of related literature was done.
