Resum
Although endometrial carcinoma (EC) is generally
considered to have a good prognosis, over 20% of women with EC
die of their disease, with a projected increase in both
incidence and mortality over the next few decades. The aim of
accurate prognostication is to ensure that patients receive
optimal treatment and are neither overtreated nor undertreated,
thereby improving patient outcomes overall. Patients with EC can
be categorized into prognostic risk groups based on
clinicopathologic findings. Other than tumor type and grade,
groupings and recommended management algorithms may take into
account age, body mass index, stage, and presence of
lymphovascular space invasion. The molecular classification of
EC that has emerged from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) study
provides additional, potentially superior, prognostic
information to traditional histologic typing and grading. This
classifier does not, however, replace clinicopathologic risk
assessment based on parameters other than histotype and grade.
It is envisaged that molecular and clinicopathologic prognostic
grouping systems will work better together than either alone.
Thus, while tumor typing and grading may be superseded by a
classification based on underlying genomic abnormalities,
accurate assessment of other pathologic parameters will continue
to be key to patient management. These include those factors
related to staging, such as depth of myometrial invasion,
cervical, vaginal, serosal surface, adnexal and parametrial
invasion, and those independent of stage such as lymphovascular
space invasion. Other prognostic parameters will also be
discussed. These recommendations were developed from the
International Society of Gynecological Pathologists Endometrial
Carcinoma project.
