    Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the prognostic significance of lymphovascular space invasion in women with low-risk endometrial cancer. Methods A dual-institutional, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with 'low-risk endometrial cancer' (patients having <50% myometrial invasion with grade 1 or 2 endometrioid endometrial cancer according to their final pathology reports) at two gynecologic oncology centers in Ankara, Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological and survival data were collected. Results We identified 912 women with low-risk endometrial cancer; 53 patients (5.8%) had lymphovascular space invasion. When compared with lymphovascular space invasion-negative patients, lymphovascular space invasion-positive patients were more likely to have post-operative grade 2 disease (p<0.001), deeper myometrial invasion (p=0.003), and larger tumor size (p=0.005). Patients with lymphovascular space invasion were more likely to receive adjuvant therapy when compared with lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (11/53 vs 12/859, respectively; p<0.001). The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate for lymphovascular space invasion-positive women was 85.5% compared with 97.0% for lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (p<0.001). The 5-year overall survival rate for lymphovascular space invasion-positive women was significantly lower than that of lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (88.2% vs 98.5%, respectively; p<0.001). Age >= 60 years (HR 3.13, 95% CI 1.13 to 8.63; p=0.02) and positive lymphovascular space invasion status (HR 6.68, 95% CI 1.60 to 27.88; p=0.009) were identified as independent prognostic factors for decreased overall survival. Conclusions Age >= 60 years and positive lymphovascular space invasion status appear to be important prognostic parameters in patients with low-risk endometrial cancer who have undergone complete surgical staging procedures including pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Lymphovascular space invasion seems to be associated with an adverse prognosis in women with low-risk endometrial cancer; this merits further assessment on a larger scale with standardization of the lymphovascular space invasion in terms of presence/absence and quantity.

    Introduction The purposes of this study were to compare adjuvant treatment modalities and to determine prognostic factors in stage III endometrioid endometrial cancer (EC). Methods SATEN III was a retrospective study involving 13 centers from 10 countries. Patients who had been operated on between 1998 and 2018 and diagnosed with stage III endometrioid EC were analyzed. Results A total of 990 women were identified; 317 with stage IIIA, 18 with stage IIIB, and 655 with stage IIIC diseases. The median follow-up was 42 months. The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) of patients with stage III EC by adjuvant treatment modality was 68.5% for radiotherapy (RT), 54.6% for chemotherapy (CT), and 69.4% for chemoradiation (CRT) (p=0.11). The 5-year overall survival (OS) for those patients was 75.6% for RT, 75% for CT, and 80.7% for CRT (p=0.48). For patients with stage IIIA disease treated by RT versus CT versus CRT, the 5-year OS rates were 75.6%, 75.0%, and 80.7%, respectively (p=0.48). Negative peritoneal cytology (HR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.23 to 0.86; p=0.02) and performance of lymphadenectomy (HR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.16 to 0.77, p=0.001) were independent predictors for improved OS for stage IIIA EC. For women with stage IIIC EC treated by RT, CT, and CRT, the 5-year OS rates were 78.9%, 67.0%, and 69.8%, respectively (p=0.08). Independent prognostic factors for better OS for stage IIIC disease were age <60 (HR: 0.50, 95%CI: 0.36 to 0.69, p<0.001), grade 1 or 2 disease (HR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.37 to 0.94, p=0.014; and HR: 0.65, 95%CI: 0.46 to 0.91, p=0.014, respectively), absence of cervical stromal involvement (HR: 063, 95% CI: 0.46 to 0.86, p=0.004) and performance of para-aortic lymphadenectomy (HR: 0.52, 95% CI: 0.35 to 0.72, p<0.001). Discussion Although not statistically significant, CRT seemed to be a better adjuvant treatment option for stage IIIA endometrioid EC. Systematic lymphadenectomy seemed to improve survival outcomes in stage III endometrioid EC.
