Abstract

Uterine papillary serous carcinoma is a special pathological type of endometrial cancer. It is similar to ovarian papillary serous carcinoma in histology and can have distant metastasis when it is still confined to the endometrium. As it is very aggressive and has a rather poor prognosis,complete surgical staging is necessary in the treatment,assisted by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In this review,the author discussed the recent research advances in uterine papillary serous carcinoma.
