The impact of lymphadenectomy on survival endpoints in women with early stage uterine endometrioid carcinoma: A matched analysis.

Objectives: The role of pelvic lymphadenectomy (LA) in women with stage I endometrial carcinoma (EC) is controversial. The objective of this study is to investigate the prognostic impact of LA on survival endpoints in matched cohorts of women with stage I EC solely of endometrioid histology. Survival endpoints included recurrence-free (RFS), disease-specific (DSS) and overall survival (OS).

Predictive Capacity of 3 Comorbidity Indices in Estimating Survival Endpoints in Women With Early-Stage Endometrial Carcinoma.

Objective: The negative impact of comorbidity on survival in women with endometrial carcinoma (EC) is well-known. Few validated comorbidity indices are available for clinical use, such as the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), the Age-Adjusted CCI (AACCI), and the Adult Comorbidity Evaluation-27 (ACE-27). The aim of the study is to determine which index best correlates with survival endpoints in women with EC.
