Background: Studies evaluating the prognostic significance of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) in early stage endometrial cancer (EC) are conflicting.
Objectives: To evaluate whether LVSI identified in stage I EC is associated with worse survival.
Search Strategy: A comprehensive literature search of three databases (Embase, PubMed, and Cochrane) was performed up to April 30 2023.
Background: Pulmonary carcinosarcoma (PCS) is a rare but aggressive malignant disease in the lung. It is characterized by coexisting histologic elements of carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. This study aimed to comprehensively understand the clinical features of PCS and develop a nomogram for prognostic prediction of PCS patients.

Objectives: To evaluate whether intrauterine hematoma identified in the first trimester in women with singleton pregnancies is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes.
Search Strategy: A comprehensive literature search of three databases (Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science) was performed up to September 2021.
Introduction: Uterine serous carcinoma accounts for only about 10% of all endometrial cancers but this subtype is the most common amongst non-endometrioid endometrium cancers and contributes to more than half of recurrence and deaths attributed to endometrial cancers. A more extensive surgical staging and adjuvant therapies for uterine serous carcinoma are recommended by many guidelines. However, guidelines vary on recommendations for the methods that should be used for omentum assessment in uterine serous carcinoma and the previously reported incidence of omental metastasis in uterine serous carcinoma had a wide range because of the heterogeneity among these studies.

- The systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the impact of diagnostic hysteroscopy on the prognosis of stage I endometrial cancer, addressing existing uncertainties regarding its oncological safety.
- Two authors will conduct thorough searches of multiple databases to select studies, extract data, and assess study quality, focusing on key outcomes like 5-year recurrence-free survival and overall survival.
- The findings will be disseminated through academic journals and conferences, leveraging previously published data, thus not requiring ethics approval.
