Abstract
Thirty-four patients with stage I adenocarcinoma of the corpus uteri were selected for radical hysterectomy combined with bilateral transperitoneal pelvic lymphadenectomy and followed for 8-15 yr. Metastases to the pelvic lymph nodes were diagnosed in 18%. Invasion of tumor in lymph or blood vessels was found in 17 patients; 5 of these patients had lymph node metastases. This was true in only 1 of 17 patients without demonstrable vessel invasion. The 5-yr crude survival was 80% with 15% urinary tract complications.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
