- Abstract:
- Endometrial carcinoma is the most frequent genital malignoma in women. Considering the tumor-biological and prognostically very different subtypes of endometrial carcinoma, an individual therapeutic strategy plays a very important role. Besides the question of an individualized organ-preserving procedure for women who wish to have a baby, the reduction of morbidity by minimally invasive laparoscopic/vaginal surgery is discussed.While adjuvant gestagen therapy is not useful, platinum-containing chemotherapy seems to be effective in certain risk situations. The indication of lymphonodectomy with regard to staging as well as the effect of adjuvant radiation therapy for local control are undisputed. In view of a postulated curative effect, the results of the ongoing prospective studies will make things clearer.
