- Abstract
Endometrial cancer represents one of the most commonly encountered gynecological malignancies affecting women worldwide which is usually treated by surgery followed by adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Even if curative intent treatment is performed, in certain cases recurrent disease might develop; in such cases, depending to the extent of the disease different therapeutic strategies might be taken in consideration. As expected, cases diagnosed with solitary, isolated recurrences are rather candidates for surgery, improved outcomes being expected in such patients. When it comes to cases diagnosed with isolated adenopathic masses, complex surgical procedures including vascular resections have been reported in order to achieve negative resection margins. This is a literature review of the most significant papers reporting complex vascular resections for isolated adenopathic masses with endometrial origin.
